Advantages: tasteless, holds well, cushioning Disadvantages: gunk left behind after can be a bit unpleasant sometimes
THis is a review for fixodent denture cream neutral. This was the sample given to me by my dentist after having an immediate temporary upper denture. I am completely new to dentures and have not used anything like this before.
SO how do you use it.
Wash and clean denture and dry it. I put small dabs of adhesive in the required places, palate, gum area etc.
Then pop denture in mouth, press for a minute and avoid food and drink for 5 mins.
This fixative has held for me for over 8 hours. It is tasteless as it is the neutral version which I prefer. I find the flavoured ones off putting as you can be eating food and then get a taste of bland mint, not nice. It also cushions the denture which is important in the early days.

Advantages: Smells nice & minty Disadvantages: Doesn't work, dentures come loose, paste leaks into mouth
know you can get it cheaper. It comes in a blue 40ml tube and looks a lot like toothpaste till you read the box! You can get it in different flavours, including Original, Fresh and Neutral.

She then put her upper and lower plates into her mouth and pressed them into place. She said she had to wait for a few minutes before she could eat or drink anything hot as this might make the adhesive not work as well as it should. She waited for the right ...
Advantages: Sticks like glue - for a while, comfortable gums Disadvantages: Horrible sensation if you overuse it
many partial denture users soon abandon them and retain a gappy smile.
