Secure Denture Adhesive Strips – Zinc Free – Waterproof – Comfortable Cushion Fit for Lowers – Extra Firm All-Day-Hold – No Mess – Clean Ingredients - 30 Strips (2 Pack)

I’ve been using this product for many years now and I have to say that I couldn’t make from day to day without it. I searched endlessly for an adhesive that contained no zinc in it. With this being my first try I feel in love right away. It holds great and has no awful taste. If you have ill fitting dentures it will work but it doesn’t last long as it should. You will have to trim it down to size I usually get about three uses out of one strip so you definitely get your moneys worth. I recommend to any that is search of something better this is it give it a try!!!

If I had not found these strips I wouldn't be able to use my lower denture. I have major bone loss and so my bottom gum is very flat. You can cut them to size and I am able to get two uses out of each strip. I can only imagine the great support it would give to someone without bone loss. Try it, you can't lose.

So first off I want to say I’m new to the denture game. After trying all kinds of adhesives I found Secure denture adhesive is by far the best adhesive on the market. So, I decided to try these strips and see how they fair on my lowers. I might be doing something wrong because the instructions are rather vague. The shape of the strips are nothing like the shape of my denture and there’s no way to cut it to make it work unless I chop it up in pieces, but I don’t think that would be right. My denture is more shaped like a U and these more like a V. The strips are not sticky in the least and won’t adhere to the denture at all. I put a strip in my mouth and pressed and held it to my gums and even the roof of my mouth… nothing. Folded one over and squished it together and it barely stuck to itself. These strips are also expensive $9 for 15 so for a month it’ll be $18 but the denture cream is only $8. I also sprinkle some super poligrip powder on top of the secure adhesive to give it extra grip. The dentist completely jacked up my lowers and my lower gums so I have to do this.For the price of these strips, they should be made bigger to accommodate any shape denture then trim the excess. But like I said originally I might be doing it all wrong.

Having read a number of positive and negative feedback on this product for the lower denture, I was curious about usage. Ordered this product on 9 /5, and received on 9/7. I wanted to use right away, so I took one of the cushions and matched my lower denture against it. You will have to cut to fit, and follow the instructions to fit inside the denture.Before I began the process I actually read the box, and it says that these cushions DO NOT WORK ON SOFT RELINES. Of course, I just had a soft reline done 1 week ago, and my upper and lowers are not staying tight, even after using my powder and tube adhesives. So before I go back to the dentist, I wanted to try this product anyway. I have to wait until June 2023 to purchase new dentures so something needs to work.After cutting and fitting the cushion, remembering to get any bubbles out, I placed the denture back in and bit down to secure. The fit was not right, so I removed, cut some more off, and put the cushion in place.The fit was perfect, so the test began on whether the cushion will hold. It held for 4-6 hours, even after having a salad for lunch, and pizza for dinner. However, it was not a super hold, and were easily removed at bedtime. The next day I used from 8 am until 6 pm, having had a snack and dinner, but before dinner was over the denture came loose and I had to re-adhere with tube adhesive. It was sort of an all-day hold, but not really, as the possibility of the denture loosening depended on how much usage of the lower jaw was taking place, as I was doing little talking most of this day.I was hoping to try on my upper denture but will not, so a dentist appt is happening soon. I 'll use them until gone, but will not order again. If you have a soft reline, don't waste your money on this item.UPDATE FOR 9.10.22:I took a suggestion from a review to add another adhesive on the top and bottom of the cushion to see if the hold would work, as I used little dots of my tube adhesive to certain sections of the denture, and it did! Hold was super tight from 8 am to 11 pm, even after having crunchy snacks, constant drinking, and two meals. I'm happy with the result, although it can be costly to order these with 15 per package, unless using the subscribe and save process.

I have been a long time user of this item for my lower denture. The older version were great. Most of the time I could go 12 hrs. Without an issue. My last order was the new version of the secure denture pad. They reduced the number of adhesive pads to 15 from 16 and they now have a waffle pattern in the adhesive which means less adhesive than before. I am lucky if I can get 6 to 8 hours before I have to replace the adhesive pad. Which means I am using about 40% more adhesive strips in the same time frame as before. That means an increase in cost of 40% as well to maintain my denture. I am looking for another brand to buy because the Secure adhesive strips are now junk compared to before and the cost has increased substantially. Very disappointed. I emailed the distributer three times with no reply. Just putting this out there as a warning. Secure has cheapened there product. I would pay more for the Secure product if they had made it better. They did not.
