These adhesives come in various forms, such as creams, powders, and strips, to offer denture wearers a range of options. They are made from adhesives and antimicrobial agents to ensure their durability and safety.
Although adequately fitted dentures may not initially need adhesives, the jaw’s bone structure changes can lead to looseness, making adhesives beneficial. Many people use denture adhesives for added security and peace of mind, especially when eating or speaking.
When choosing the best adhesive, it’s important to consider factors like comfort, retention, and ease of use. This ensures a better overall experience for those with dentures in Brampton.

Different Types of Denture Adhesives Available at Our Brampton Clinic

There are four different types of denture adhesives available for people to choose from based on their suitability.

1. Adhesive Creams
Denture adhesive creams come in tubes and are easy to use. Patients apply a small amount of the cream to their dentures before placing them on their gums. These adhesives help stabilize dentures, especially when they fit properly, providing a secure hold.
Cream adhesives are popular because they are simple to apply and offer a strong connection. This ensures dentures stay in place throughout the day, making them a reliable choice.

How to Use Them
Here are the steps on how to use cream denture adhesives:

Begin with cleaning and drying your dentures thoroughly.
Apply a thin strip of the cream adhesive along the ridges of the dentures.
Insert your dentures and hold them securely in place for a few seconds to give some time for the adhesive to set.
To clean, remove the dentures and clean them thoroughly with water at the end of the day.

2. Adhesive Strips
Denture adhesive strips are made from non-toxic materials and are placed between the denture and gums. They are convenient and easy to use, especially for those with poorly fitting dentures. These pre-cut strips offer strong adhesion and are mess-free, which makes them a popular choice. However, they may slightly affect bite alignment, so it is important to make sure your dentures fit well. Adhesive strips provide a practical, hassle-free solution for keeping dentures in place throughout the day.

How to Use Them
Here are the steps on how to use denture adhesive strips:

Clean your dentures and make sure they are dry before applying the adhesive strips. This is because residue and moisture can get in the way of your dentures fitting properly, which can make them slip.
Peel the strips carefully. Avoid touching their sticky side.
Place the strips along the ridges of your dentures, ensuring they are not too close to the edges. Avoid overlapping the strips.
Gently press out any bubbles or wrinkles on the strips.
Place your dentures in your mouth and press them down firmly. Hold them in position for a few seconds to let the adhesive set.

3. Adhesive Powders
Denture adhesive powders are sprinkled onto the wet surface of dentures. The powder activates with saliva and sticks to the gums, which helps secure the dentures.
Like adhesive creams, powders work best when dentures fit properly. They quickly form a strong seal, which provides stability and comfort.
Powders are popular because they are easy to use and mess-free. Many denture wearers choose them for convenience, as they offer a reliable and practical solution for keeping dentures secure.

How to Use Them
Here are the steps on how to use denture adhesive powders:

Start by cleaning and moistening your dentures thoroughly.
Sprinkle some of the adhesive powder to make a thin layer along the ridges of your dentures.
Insert your dentures and hold them securely for a few seconds to let the adhesive set.
To clean at the end of the day, remove your dentures and rinse them carefully with warm water.

4. Adhesive Pads
Denture adhesive pads, also known as denture cushions, help create suction to keep dentures securely in place. These soft pads mould easily to the gum line, which offers a comfortable fit. They are simple to apply and remove without leaving any mess behind. Adhesive pads also provide additional stability, especially for those with loose or ill-fitting dentures.
Their ease of use and comfort make them a popular choice for denture wearers looking for a hassle-free solution to enhance denture retention.

How to Use Them
Here are the steps on how to use denture adhesive pads:

Before applying the adhesive pads, ensure that your dentures are clean and dry, as moisture and residue can cause them to slip.
Gently open the package of denture adhesive pads, taking care not to touch the sticky side.
Position the pads along the ridges of your dentures, and make sure they are not too near the edges. Avoid overlapping the pads.
Peel off the foil from both sides of the pads.
Press the pads firmly onto your dentures using your fingers to secure them in place.
Place your dentures in your mouth and press them firmly into position. Hold them for a few seconds to allow the adhesive to set.

How to Maintain Your Dentures When Using Adhesives

Maintaining your dentures properly is essential when using adhesives to ensure their comfort, cleanliness, and longevity.
After eating, always remove your dentures and rinse them with water to remove food particles and debris. Make sure to clean your mouth after removing your dentures by brushing your natural teeth, gums, tongue, and the roof of your mouth, removing any leftover adhesive.
To avoid breaking them if dropped, place a towel in the sink or use water to cushion them. Handle dentures carefully to avoid bending or damaging their structure, especially the clasps.
Brushing your dentures at least once daily is important to keep them clean and plaque-free. Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild denture cleanser to avoid damaging the material. Don’t forget to clean the grooves where the adhesive may remain. At night, soak your dentures in water or a mild denture-soaking solution to maintain their shape and prevent drying out. Always rinse them thoroughly before reinserting them in the morning to avoid harmful chemicals from soaking solutions. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials, bleach, or hot water, as these can damage your dentures.

Frequently Asked Questions about Denture Adhesives in Brampton

When is the best time to start using denture adhesives?

The best time to start using denture adhesives is once your dentist confirms that your dentures fit well. Even with a good fit, it may take some time to get used to wearing them. Denture adhesives help provide all-day comfort, keeping your dentures securely in place and preventing food particles from irritating you while eating or speaking.

How do I remove denture adhesive?

To remove denture adhesive, start by swishing warm water in your mouth for about a minute. Then, gently rock your dentures out of your mouth. Use a soft-bristled brush with warm water to remove any remaining adhesive. Clean your dentures with a denture cleanser and rinse them with water. For extra help, rinse your mouth with a saltwater mixture to remove stubborn adhesive.

How do denture adhesives work?

Denture adhesives work by interacting with saliva in your mouth, which causes the adhesive to become sticky and expand. This forms a strong bond between the denture and your gums, helping to keep them securely in place. The adhesive also fills any small gaps between the denture and gum, improving their fit and overall retention and providing more comfort and stability throughout the day.

Why must I use denture adhesives?

Denture adhesives help keep your dentures securely in place, improving comfort while eating and speaking. They can also increase your confidence by preventing slipping and discomfort. Adhesives also improve chewing by preventing food from getting trapped between dentures and gums. Additionally, they provide temporary relief if your dentures become loose due to changes in your mouth over time, which offer added stability and security.

Do denture adhesives cause stomach issues? What is the remedy?

Yes, denture adhesives can cause stomach issues if used incorrectly or in excess. Swallowing too much adhesive may lead to nausea, constipation, or vomiting. Some adhesives contain zinc, which can cause toxicity if overused, leading to stomach pain and nausea. To avoid problems, use zinc-free adhesives, avoid overuse, and consult a healthcare provider if you experience side effects.
