Dentures that are properly fitted shouldn\u2019t need any extra support to stay in place or feel comfortable. However, many patients with this classic restoration enjoy having a little bit of added security provided by denture adhesives. But with so many types to choose from, it can be difficult determining which one is best for you! Read on as we break down what to look for when choosing the best adhesive for your unique smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Evaluating the Types of Adhesives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have a specific preference for your adhesive? Denture adhesives come in three main types, each offering their own advantages and drawbacks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Adhesive cream<\/strong>: Denture cream can be applied to the underside of a denture, which is then pressed and held in place. It offers a strong, long-lasting hold and can help prevent gum irritation.<\/li><li><strong>Adhesive powder<\/strong>: Depending on the brand, an adhesive powder can work for up to 12 hours. A light layer is applied to the underside of a denture before being pressed into place.<\/li><li><strong>Adhesive strips<\/strong>: Adhesive strips are very convenient, as they are easy to apply and meant for all-day use. The pre-cut strips are simply pressed onto the denture and then pressed into place.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Of course, if you prefer one style over another, you should take that into consideration. Another factor to consider is which you would find easiest or most convenient to apply during your daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Denture adhesives all contain different ingredients, but some contain zinc. While sometimes beneficial, this natural mineral can cause health complications with over-exposure. If this concerns you, consider looking for a zinc-free product. Additionally, if you are sensitive to any other popular ingredients or common chemicals, make sure to closely inspect the ingredients label. You may want to opt for an all-natural denture adhesive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Considering Cost &amp; Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While denture adhesive is relatively inexpensive, you should still factor in the cost when choosing which product is right for you. However, keep in mind that more expensive items are not necessarily better quality. But by the same token, it\u2019s not wise to buy a product simply because it\u2019s cheapest. To help find a high-quality denture adhesive that fits into your budget, consider looking at product reviews online. Look through what other denture-wearers have to say about the products you\u2019re considering so you can determine which ones are worth investing your time and money into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Denture adhesive is an excellent way to help you feel even more confident about your new smile. However, if you find that your denture is not staying in place properly, it may be time to call your dentist for a readjustment or realignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>At University Dental Group, we\u2019re proud to be Worcester\u2019s one-stop-shop for high-quality dental care.
