If I Get Charged with a DUI and I Have Dentures, Will it Effect my Breath Test Results? DUI Attorney Marysville, DUI Lawyer Edmonds, DUI Island County

By Riley S. Lovejoy, Attorney at Law – The short answer is this: If your denture adhesives absorb alcohol, it can throw off the breath test result.  The biggest factor in determining if mouth alcohol will throw off the BAC result is whether or not your mouth has remained closed since your last drink (since air passing through your mouth aids the alcohol in evaporating).  Even a small amount of alcohol in your mouth could drastically throw off your BAC result since the machine is multiplying each gram of alcohol 210 times to estimate your alcohol-to-blood ratio.
