SecureWaterproof Denture Adhesive - Zinc Free - Extra Strong Hold For Upper, Lower or Partials - 1.4 oz

Since acquiring dentures a few years ago, I have gone thru the all to familiar frustration, who anyone that also has dentures can relate to, of trying to find an adhesive that checks all the important boxes. When I put the adhesive paste on my dentures, put them in my mouth, and bite down, they have the habit of sometimes oozing or squeezing out and getting inside your mouth which is frustrating for multiple reasons. You then have to use a paper towel or something else to wipe off any excess that has become visible on the outside of the dentures, not to mention having to taste the paste, which let's be honest, is not the best flavor. And if you have adhesive paste thats pink for example, like Fixodent's popular brands, then you end up having to spit out the excess as well that has mixed with your saliva, which is weird in itself. This of course doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes depending on if I maybe just put a little too much on, or on an area too close to the ends, it happens. For this reason I made a switch to another popular brand that's white/clear in color, which at least prevents me from having pink saliva if a little squeezes out. Next we have the issue of it being strong enough to hold everything in place. Id say the extra strength Fixodent brand is probably the strongest up till this point. But the other big thing that I know I'm not the only person who experiences this, is the frustration of having to wait nearly 45mins to an hour for the denture adhesive to set. In the mean time you can't eat anything and you also might have to keep adjusting the dentures a little because until it sets, the dentures can slide around a bit. This for me, is probably the thing I hate the most. If I'm leaving into town, or meeting someone, I have to remember to apply my denture adhesive, amd put my dentures in my mouth over am hour before I meet someone just to be safe, and I've always been annoyed why denture adhesive takes so long to set. Enter Secure denture adhesive. Naturally I've been doing a ton of research online to try and read reviews and online posts to try and find other people that share my same issues, amd if they found any solution. I ended up coming across some YouTube videos discussing Secure denture adhesive, which until that day I never even knew existed, because its not available in regular grocery store for some reason. At least not any that I've been to, amd I've checked a lot. The lady in the YouTube video stated that not only did she find Secure denture adhesive to be as strong if not stronger than any other locally available options, but I was delighted to hear her mention that she too was frustrated by how long it takes for other adhesives to dry, and that the Secure product dries significantly faster, in part because its not water soluble, so it isn't affecting by saliva and the natural wetness in your mouth like other products. This was enough for me to order my first tube of it, which arrived earlier today. Not only was the product white/clear (not pink) which was a plus for me, but u was shocked how fast it set after I put them in and bit down for a fee minutes. I'd say that the best circumstance for the other products were around 45 mins to as much as an hour so it to fully set. This product was rock solid after like 15 mins. No sliding around, no re-adjusting, etc. The only thing I'd say I was a bit surprised about that wasn't on the positive side was the size of the tube for how much it was. But then again, because of its strength (which in my opinion is that its stronger than Fixident or any other brands by a good amount) you don't need to use as much, which I guess would technically make it last about as long as the other brands because of having to use more, or re-apply because its still sliding around. So all in all, I couldn't be happier with this product. I was honestly starting to lose hope that I'd never find something that did what I wanted it to do, but thanks to research and YouTube, I was lucky to find out about this product. Its 5 out of 5 stars for me, and I will definitely be making this my new everyday adhesive. So if your picky like me, or have any of the same issues as I described, I'd highly recommend you try this product. You won't be dissatisfied, as its the best adhesive I've ever found 👍🏻

I'm going to make this review a long one because of all the ridiculous 1-star reviews I read. I find it hard to believe that this stuff lasted "2 hours" in someone's mouth without them possessing some sort of supernatural zombie-saliva. This stuff is absolutely fantastic.First, I've been wearing dentures for over 6 years. Until recently I had a full upper and partial (two "anchor" teeth) lower. I have tried (literally) every available cream, powder, or pad available. I've stayed with Sea-Bond pads the last few years because they were gentle on my gums and this is because they helped really "wedge" the plates in and allowed for some forgiveness in fit.I recently parted ways with my two "anchor teeth" and found that the Sea Bond pads, while continuing to work fine for the uppers, just didn't do it for me on the lowers. I decided I'd give my previously used creams another shot.I found the best grip with Effergrip followed by Fixodent (food) and finally, Poligrip. Fixodent seemed to work better with Effergrip when eating things like soups and chowders, but tougher foods were best handled with the Effergrip. It still didn't seem to be enough and I kept losing grip with the lower denture in a very short period unless I put so much on them that I had that feeling like I'd given my mouth a shot of anti-perspirant.Then, a friend in Europe recommended a product to me called "Fittydent". Through some research, I found that "Fittydent" (available on Amazon and about twice as expensive as "Secure") is distributed by a company called Bioforce as "SECURE".I ordered the cream and a set of lower denture cushions (because I'm used to using Sea-Bond).I tried it following the directions exactly (using three small ribbons on the bottom and four on top). The instructions describe "biting firmly" and then "waiting at least fifteen minutes before eating". Done.I was absolutely amazed. It felt like I had real teeth. For the first time in years (every year I've worn dentures, in fact) I felt completely secure eating. The dentures didn't budge. This is especially noteworthy because I'm due a re-line and my lower denture is actually getting pretty loose (gums healing).Yes, I felt the "burning sensation". Fortunately, I can read and understand what "non-toxic" means. I also tried the trick (described in the instructions) of spreading it out and letting it set 30 seconds before trying them. It still tingled a bit but the sensation does go away within (guess?) about fifteen minutes. From that point forward, they're in like they're bolted.My only concern was cleaning the dentures (and my MOUTH!) considering the instructions to use something with a pH "greater than 9". Freakout, right?! Nope. Baking Soda has a pH of 9. Milk of Magnesia has a pH of 10 (higher pH is the opposite of acidic for those who aren't familiar). Baking soda cleaned my dentures perfectly and a little bit on a washcloth with warm water cleaned my mouth completely.This stuff is amazing. Follow the directions. Don't be afraid of a little tingle. I ate corn-on-the-cob for the first time in 15 years today. If the "tingle" really, really, scares you, they have a version for "sensitive gums". I haven't tried it only because I'm so happy with the way the basic version of SECURE works I'm afraid of taking a step backward.I have also tried the denture cushions. They work equally fantastic and are easier to use than the creams, so I now go with the cushion on the bottom and the cream on the top. I take my dentures out every night, clean them, clean my mouth very well, and put the dentures back in (I was taught to do this by a somewhat unusual dentist when I had my first set made as an aid to healing and it has worked well for me since).On a recent trip I was forced to go without my ritual for one night and had great hold for about 40 hours. I still had to pull them out.Give it a shot. I hope everyone who tries is as amazed (and fortunate) as I have been.

Great denture adhesive. Holds for at least 12 hours! So sticky you need to scrub it off your fingers! Wish they made a larger tube!
