This document discusses denture adhesives and denture cleansers. It provides background on denture adhesives including their history, formulations, modes of action, uses, and risks. It describes different types of denture adhesives including pads, powders, and creams. The document also discusses denture cleansers and the importance of cleaning dentures to remove plaque and maintain oral hygiene. Proper denture hygiene is an important part of patient care for edentulous individuals.
1. Fittydent adhesive provides a strong and long-lasting bond between dentures and gums for over 12 hours, preventing issues like pain, difficulty eating and speaking, and social discomfort.
2. It does not dissolve in water or saliva like other adhesives. 92% of patients are satisfied with Fittydent compared to 77.9% for other brands.
3. Fittydent sensitive adhesive contains aloe vera and myrrh to heal, soothe, and reduce gum pain while preventing denture slippage, important for provisional dentures used in implant procedures.
Commercially available, non-toxic, soluble material that is applied to the tissue surface of the denture to enhance retention, stability and performance.
The simplicity of bonding can be misleading. The technique undoubtedly can be misused, not only by an inexperienced clinician but also by more experienced orthodontists who do not perform procedures with care.
Success in bonding requires understanding of and adherence to accepted orthodontic and preventive dentistry principles.
The advantages and disadvantages of bonding versus banding of different teeth must be weighed according to each practitioner’s preferences, skill, and experience.
Bonding should be considered as part of a modern preventive package that also includes a strict oral hygiene program, fluoride supplementation, and the use of simple yet effective appliances. In other words, complicated mechanics with abundant use of coil springs and multilooped arches lends itself less well to bonding and easily can compromise the integrity of tooth enamel and gingival tissues around brackets on small bonding bases.
This document discusses denture adhesives, including their history and composition. It notes that early adhesives were formulated using vegetable gums by apothecaries in the 19th century. Modern adhesives use polymers that swell when exposed to water or saliva to increase viscosity between the denture and oral mucosa. Ideal adhesives are non-toxic, odorless, and easy to apply. The document provides details on different types of adhesives, including creams, powders, pads, and their appropriate usage. It notes that while adhesives can improve denture function, they are not a replacement for well-fitting dentures and regular checkups are needed.
This document provides information on the different generations of dentin bonding agents. It discusses the definitions and requirements of ideal bonding agents. It describes the mechanisms and challenges of bonding to enamel versus dentin. The development and limitations of first through seventh generation bonding agents are outlined, focusing on how newer generations aimed to simplify procedures and improve bond strength to dentin over time. The key aspects of enamel bonding, dentin bonding, and the role of the smear layer are summarized.

Orthodontic adhesives have progressed through five generations, moving from unfilled acrylic resins to modern light-cured resin composites. First generation adhesives were unfilled poly(methyl methacrylate) that caused enamel damage. Second generation used UV light activation but had radiation hazards. Third generation introduced two-paste filler systems like Concise. Fourth generation were "no-mix" but had inhomogeneous curing. Current fifth generation utilize visible light curing for safer, deeper curing without diminishing over time.
The document discusses the history and generations of dentin bonding agents. It describes the challenges of bonding to dentin due to its composition and structure. Early bonding agents bonded weakly to the smear layer rather than dentin. Current bonding agents condition and prime the dentin surface to allow resin infiltration and strong bonding. They are classified based on their treatment of the smear layer and number of clinical steps.
The document discusses various techniques and materials for posterior composite restorations, including the use of liners to reduce marginal leakage and polymerization shrinkage stress. It also covers advances in dental adhesives that incorporate solvents and nanoparticles to improve bonding to dentin. Proper layering of composites incrementally is recommended to minimize shrinkage and debonding at restoration interfaces.

This document discusses new developments in dental adhesion. It summarizes that adhesion involves bonding two substrates together, like bonding a restoration to enamel or dentin in dentistry. There are two main strategies for dental adhesion - etch-and-rinse and self-etch. Etch-and-rinse removes the smear layer and demineralizes the surface before bonding, while self-etch adhesives make the smear layer permeable without completely removing it. Recent developments focus on simplifying and reducing application time with self-etch adhesives that condition, prime, and bond in a single step. However, etching with phosphoric acid is still considered the standard for bonding to enamel.
The document discusses the history and development of dentin bonding agents over several generations from the 1970s to 2000s. It covers key topics such as the role of the smear layer, conditioning of dentin, components of bonding agents, and critical steps for clinical use. Dentin bonding agents have evolved from early attempts at chemical bonding to current multi-step and self-etching adhesives that provide both mechanical and chemical bonding via a hybrid layer between resin and dentin. Proper isolation, acid-etching, moisture control, and curing technique are important for achieving optimal bond strength.
Dentin bonding agents are resinous materials used to bond dental composites to dentin by forming a hybrid layer. They were introduced to reduce the need for extensive tooth preparation. A dentin bonding agent consists of a conditioner/etchant, primer, and adhesive. It bonds to dentin by partially demineralizing it with acid and forming resin microtags within the dentin. Dentin bonding agents have various clinical applications including bonding composites, veneers, and orthodontic appliances to teeth.

This document discusses acid etching of dental surfaces. It describes how acid etching was first proposed in 1955 to increase bond strength between composite resin and enamel. Acid etching removes enamel and creates an irregular porous surface that allows resin to penetrate through micromechanical interlocking, improving bond strength. Factors like acid type/concentration, etching duration, and fluoride levels can affect bonding. While acid etching is effective, some alternatives under investigation include crystal growth solutions, air abrasion, and lasers, but they have not achieved bond strengths as high as acid etching.
Pit and fissure sealants are materials designed to prevent dental caries. Recent advancements include sealants that have remineralizing properties through the incorporation of fluoride, amorphous calcium phosphate, or novamin. Other improvements include sealants with optic properties like clear, colored or fluorescent sealants, and hydrophilic bond sealants that are more moisture-resistant. Newer sealants also aim to be biological and BPA-free, or contain nanoparticles.

This document discusses dental adhesives that are used to bond composite resins to tooth structures. It describes the evolution of adhesive dentistry from cavity preparation involving removal of tooth structure to a minimally invasive approach using acid etching and adhesives. The key components of dental adhesive systems include a conditioner, primer, and bonding agent. Ideal adhesives eliminate sensitivity, have a thin film thickness and provide strong bond strength. The document outlines the different generations of adhesives and their interactions with enamel and dentin. Newer adhesives simplify application steps and bonding performance depends on factors like surface area and wettability.
Development of a processed composite restorationIoannis Skliris
This document summarizes the principles and clinical procedures for bonding laboratory-processed composite restorations. It discusses the importance of optimizing the adhesion between the restoration and tooth structure through proper surface preparation and moisture control. A key factor in the long-term success of these restorations is creating a strong, durable bond between the tooth, resin cement, and restoration material. The document outlines the clinical steps for etching and applying adhesive to both the tooth and restoration to achieve this bond. It also addresses factors like restoration fit and finishing/polishing that influence marginal integrity and wear resistance.

Tissue conditioners are temporary denture liners composed of polyethylmethacrylate and aromatic esters that form a gel when mixed. They have several uses: as adjuncts for tissue healing by protecting irritated tissues before denture fabrication; as temporary obturators over existing dentures; to stabilize denture bases and surgical splints; and to diagnose the effects of resilient denture liners. Tissue conditioners are applied by reducing the denture base, mixing the three components, and molding the material to the denture tissues. They require gentle cleaning to prevent tearing but only provide temporary relief due to loss of plasticizers over 4-8 weeks.
This document discusses denture base materials, specifically acrylic resins. It begins by defining denture base and classifying denture base resins as non-metallic, metallic, temporary or permanent. Ideal requirements of dental resins are listed. Composition and differences between heat cure and self cure acrylic resins are provided. Processing techniques like compression molding and the curing cycle are described. Other resin types like light activated are also mentioned. Common processing errors in acrylic resins like porosity, crazing and warpage are listed.
Dental composites are restorative materials used to fill cavities and repair teeth. They consist of resin matrices and inorganic filler particles, and can be cured using light or chemical activation methods. Over time, composites have improved through reductions in particle size and the use of nanofillers to enhance mechanical and aesthetic properties. Direct dental composites are placed by dentists to restore teeth using various techniques sensitive to factors like shade matching and curing methods. While composites provide good esthetics and tooth conservation, they also have disadvantages like technique sensitivity and risks of microleakage.
classification review of dental adhesive systems.pdfLaVieEnRose23
This document summarizes the classification and evolution of dental adhesive systems from the 4th generation to universal type adhesives. It discusses the key developments in dental adhesives since the 1950s that have led to improvements in bonding to enamel and dentin. These include Buonocore's initial work demonstrating the benefits of acid etching enamel in 1955, the introduction of the total-etch approach in the 1970s to overcome the smear layer, and the development of self-etch adhesives in the 1990s as an alternative to total-etch systems. Currently, there are three main strategies for bonding - etch-and-rinse, self-etch, and resin-modified glass ionomer approaches. More recently, universal

Retention /certified fixed orthodontic courses by Indian dental academy Indian dental academy
This document discusses factors affecting the retention of complete dentures. It describes positive physical factors like adhesion, cohesion, interfacial forces, atmospheric pressure, and gravity that can enhance retention. Adhesion involves ionic bonding between saliva and oral tissues/denture. Cohesion refers to molecular attraction within saliva. Interfacial forces include surface tension and viscous tension that resist separation of denture and tissues. Atmospheric pressure also provides resistance if dentures have an effective seal. Physiological, mechanical, psychological, and surgical factors are also reviewed.
This document discusses the history and evolution of dental adhesives from the first generation developed in the 1950s to the latest universal adhesive systems. It covers the various classifications of adhesives based on generation and mechanism of adhesion. The key mechanisms of adhesion to enamel and dentin are described, including the etch and rinse approach and self-etch adhesives. Factors affecting the bonding process and bond strength are also summarized.

History and Selection of Pit and Fissure Sealents – A Review.QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Two strategies for fluoroprophylaxis have been proposed: the first is the systemic fluoroprophylaxis which is especially effective in averting interproximal caries, however it doesn't frame a satisfactory defensive obstruction on the occlusal surfaces; the other is the topical use of a fluoride gel to the tooth surface, in spite of the fact that this second strategy does not fundamentally diminish the frequency of caries. The viability of the fixing methods relies on upon the right application procedure. Watching an agent convention will guarantee a more extended enduring maintenance of the sealant on the occlusal surface and in this manner drags out the security against caries. This review gives the in and out details about pit and fissure sealents.

Use of modified tooth forms in complete denture occlusion / dental implant...Indian dental academy
This document discusses dental occlusion concepts and philosophies for complete dentures. It introduces key terms like physiologic occlusion and defines different occlusion schemes like balanced articulation and monoplane articulation. The document discusses advantages and disadvantages of using anatomic versus non-anatomic teeth for complete dentures. It also outlines requirements for maintaining denture stability, such as balanced occlusal contacts and control of horizontal forces. The goal of occlusion for complete dentures is to re-establish the homeostasis of the masticatory system disrupted by edentulism.

4. The use of denture adhesives, fixatives, or
adherents began about the same time as
the age of modern dentistry in the late
18th century. The dental literature before
the 19th century shows no reference to
adhesives or fixatives.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
5. Adhesives or fixatives used in the 19th.
century were formulated by an apothecary
who mixed vegetable gums to produce a
material that absorbed moisture from the
saliva and swelled to a mucilaginous
substrate that adhered to the mucosa of
the mouth and denture.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
6. The first reference by the American Dental
Association to denture adhesives came
from the Accepted Dental Remedies of
1935 in which the Council of Dental
Materials, instruments and Equipment
admitted that these products were
nonmedical.

www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Cream adhesives might derive their retentive
properties from a polymer such as methyl
cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, or
carboxymethyl cellulose. These cream
adhesives spread laterally, excluding air and
saliva from the tissue surface of the denture.
The increase in viscosity of the cream layer,
compared with that of the saliva is a factor for
the increased retention.

15. Denture adhesives
Synonyms:
Adherents
Fixatives
Long been recognized by denture wearers as a useful
adjunct to denture retention, stability and function.
The earliest patent issued for a denture adhesive dates
back to 1913, with others following in the 1920s and
1930s .
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
16. Early fixatives were formulated from vegetable gums
such as acacia, tragacanth, or karya that adsorb water to
form a mucilaginous layer between the denture-bearing
tissue and the denture base.
The early denture adhesives were not very satisfactory
because they were highly soluble in water solutions
(particularly hot liquids) and washed out readily from
beneath the denture, rendering the fixative useful for only
a relatively short period.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
17. composition
Currently
soluble and insoluble groups
The insoluble groups - pads and synthetic
wafers.
The soluble group - creams, pastes, and
powders.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
18. However, the one ingredient constant in the
composition of cream and powder denture
adhesives is the inclusion of one or more
components that swell and becomes viscous
and sticky as they absorb water, or more
appropriately, become hydrated.
The two ingredients constant in the insoluble
group are a fabric carrier and a component that
becomes sticky when hydrated.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
19. Pre-1960 gum-based adhesives were followed by
synthetic agents which depend primarily on the chemical
properties of one or more active ingredients that swell
and become viscous and sticky in the presence of water
or saliva.
The increased volume resulting from this chemical action
fills the voids between the denture base and the
supporting tissues.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
20. The active ingredients in today's adhesives are a blend of
polymer salts with differing degrees of water solubility. The
blend of polymer salts is designed to produce a product with
short- and long-term actions. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)
and polyvinylether methyl cellulose (PVM-MA) are examples
of short- and long-acting salts, respectively.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
21. In the I970s the effectiveness of denture
adhesives was improved by adding calcium
salts to the blend, and in the 1980s the
effectiveness of denture adhesives again was
improved by adding zinc to the 1970
formulation.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
22. In addition to the active ingredients of CMC and
PVM-MA, soluble denture adhesives contain a
number of nonactive components that add
particular attributes to the formulations.
E.g.: petrolatum, mineral oil, and polyethylene
oxide as binding materials to facilitate placement;
peppermint oils and menthol for flavoring; dye for
color; and sodium borate and methyl or poly -
paraban as preservatives.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
23. Pads and synthetic wafers make up the insoluble group
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
25. They essentially include a laminated fabric with a
water-activated component impregnated within
the fabric’s mesh, which becomes sticky upon
adsorbing saliva.
Webs of laminate may range from woven
napped material to unwoven fiber or web such
as light polypropylene scrim or cellulose paper.
E.g. sodium alginate or ethylene oxide polymer,
which become sticky when activated by saliva
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
27. A comment often made by patients who have
problems with their natural dentition is, “Take them
all out and give me dentures so that I will not have
any more dental problems.’’
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Edentulism is the beginning of lifelong
Prosthodontic treatment with concomitant
changes in the oral cavity, which will require
continuous monitoring to detect inevitable
changes to the remaining supporting,
peripheral, and oral tissues.
Edentulism accompanied by denture treatment
that has not received periodic professional
scrutiny will eventually result in compromised fit
and function of removable prostheses.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
29. Often denture patients, rather than seeking professional
help to evaluate oral changes affecting denture function,
will turn to some type of denture adhesive to achieve the
desired function and comfort. It is therefore necessary
that a recall system become an integral part of
prosthodontic treatment and both dentist and patient be
educated about the use, abuse, indications,
contraindications, options, and selection of an adhesive.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
31. Recommending the use of a denture adhesive
will reflect poorly on the dentist’s technical skills.
Not so, if in fact, appropriate technical skills were
employed and treatment limitations did not exceed
patient’s expectations or provider’s abilities.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
32. Denture adhesives will increase the vertical
dimension of occlusion.
Not so, if the patient has been professionally informed of
the proper use and misuse of an adhesive.
Denture adhesive cannot play a role in well-fitting
dentures.
It has been shown scientifically that the use of a denture
adhesive can improve function, retention, stability and bite
force in well-fitting dentures. There are indications for use
in well-fitting prostheses, though they are limited.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
33. Bone resorption will result from microbial irritation
of soft tissue.
There is no scientific evidence to support this claim.
The use of a denture adhesive will contribute to
oral pathoses.
There is no scientific evidence to support this claim.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
35. The risks of masking an underlying condition unrelated to
denture adhesive use, per se, are real.
Examples of the masking effect of a denture adhesive are
those related to neoplasms and normal recontouring of the
supporting tissues.
Although the occurrence of tumors under a denture is
relatively uncommon, patients and health care providers
must be vigilant of this potential, because the adverse
consequences can be serious.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
36. Inasmuch as tissue changes under the denture
take place slowly and are often asymptomatic,
the patient’s initial reaction is to begin using an
adhesive and later, usually unknowingly, modify
the amount of adhesive used to compensate for
what has become an ill-fitting denture.
Because the growth of these tumors is relatively
slow, the use of a denture adhesive may mask
their initial presence, and a tumor if not be
noticed by a patient until it has reached a
significant size.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
37. A more common masking of tissue changes occur in
patients who at one time had a well-flitting denture that
later became loose, unstable, and ill-fitting as a result of
lifelong changes in the bony architecture (a normal
sequalae of edentulism).
At this point dentures should be either refitted or remade.
If not, bony resorption will continue and as time passes the
denture will become more ill-fitting, thus masking
deteriorating or deleterious tissue changes; this is a major
contraindication for the use of a denture adhesive.
Unfortunately, some patients, rather than solving this
conundrum (Riddle) by seeking professional service,
resort to the use of a denture adhesive.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
39. A basic knowledge of denture adhesives will help provide a
patient with the expectations and limitations of a selected
product.
The desired attributes of a denture fixative are :
Sensitive to hydration
Rapid onset
Sufficient duration of action
Washout resistance
Ease of cleansibility
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
41. Health care providers frequently are asked advice
in selecting the best adherent. This is a difficult
question to answer, because the selection process
is subjective and depends on many variables such
as anatomy, condition of the supporting tissues,
the expectations of the patient, the intended use,
the product limitations, attributes, the mental and
overall physical characteristics of the patient, and
perhaps most importantly the indication for the use
of an adhesive.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
42. The health care provider can give limited,
hopefully convincing advice, but the final decision
rests with the patient. Often patients will try
different products before settling on one.
Nevertheless, advice to the patient should at a
minimum include:
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
43. Pointing out differences among powders,
creams and pads.
Have a clear focus on the reasons for using
an adhesive.
Use the minimum amount necessary to
achieve the desired result.
Distribute the adhesive evenly over th tissue
bearing surfaces.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Apply or reapply when necessary.
Always apply denture adhesive to a clean tissue
surface.
The risk factors and the necessity for periodic
professional evaluation.
The use of a denture adhesive is NOT a
treatment modality, per Se, but rather an adjunct
to denture treatment.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
46. Pads are very different from creams and
powders. The unique attributes of pads and
synthetic wafers include a fabric carrier
impregnated with an adhesive, Pads and
synthetic wafers are applied by adapting them to
the contour of the prosthesis and seating with
firm pressure. It may also be advisable to wet the
pad before inserting, because it is most effective
when wet. Pads or synthetic wafers placed in the
mandibular denture may require trimming with
scissors.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
49. Creams and powders essentially include the same active
ingredients, which differ slightly among manufacturers.
However, the method of applying each to the denture base
differs and the use of one over the other is a matter of
personal preference.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
50. Patients should be advised on the application process of
each of these products as well as the removal of the
residual material from the mouth and denture base
between applications.
Because of its bulk and stickiness, removal from the
mouth and denture base often require mechanical
removal with toothbrush and or gauze pads.
At times it can be frustrating and time consuming. This is
especially important to point out to individuals who are
mentally, physically or neuromuscuIarly compromised.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
52. When applying a denture powder, the denture base
should be dry before sprinkling a thin, even coating of
the adhesive onto the tissue-bearing surface of the
prosthesis.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
54. The excess is shaken off and the prosthesis is inserted
and firmly seated. Some denture adhesive users claim
that they can achieve a more even distribution of the
powder than they can with creams and also use less
adhesive. This view is not shared by many who use
creams.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
56. Two application approaches are possible with
creams, each with advantages and
disadvantages.
The ‘‘strip’’ method is commonly recommended
by most manufacturers.
In the mandibular prosthesis, a thin strip is
placed onto the denture base in the
molar/premolar ridge areas and in the incisor
area.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
58. In the maxillary denture, three thin strips
are placed on denture base, one
anterioposteriorily along the midline of the
hard palate and one each along the ridges
in the molar areas.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
60. A second approach also recommended by
some manufacturers is the placement of
several small spots about the size of the tube
diameter, some distance apart throughout the
tissue-bearing surface.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
62. Of course, the number and distance apart will depend on
the desired amount, though the minimal amount
necessary should be used to achieve the desired result.
This can only be determined by trial and error and the
amount applied will vary from person to person.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
65. Indications and contraindications in the use of
adjuncts in a prescribed treatment process are
standard considerations, especially when
employed in a product like a denture adhesive
where the acceptance by both professionals and
patients is universally mixed.
Knowing when and when not to use a health-
related over-the-counter product is fundamental to
maximizing benefits and minimizing potential
adverse effects.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
66. Trial bases
Stable trial bases are necessary to obtain accurate jaw
relation records in the course of fabricating new dentures.
A denture adhesive, powder, or cream may be used in
situations in which the retention and stability are less than
desirable, As previously stated, only the minimal amount
should be used. If too much is used, jaw relation records on
trial bases may not be properly seated.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
67. Immediate dentures
Recontouring of the soft and hard tissues related
to the extraction sites is an integral part of
immediate denture treatment and the healing
process. Complete recontouring of the alveolar
ridge may take 6 or more months. During this
recontouring phase, the immediate denture may
become loose and ill fitting and require one or
more temporary soft relines.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
68. Recontouring of the extraction sites is a
continuous process, and the use of a denture
adhesive may be desirable to augment retention
and stability during this process. However, the
use of a denture adhesive is contraindicated
immediately following the extraction of teeth and
insertion of the prosthesis, because adhesive
may be expressed into the extraction sites and
interfere with clot formation.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
69. Reconstruction or pre-prosthetic surgery
Patients undergoing intraoral surgical
procedures may require the use of a denture
adhesive for a short period to secure an existing
or interim prosthesis. The indefinite use of a
denture adhesive may be required in some
patients who have undergone extensive
oralmaxillofacial surgery when no other
alternative is available.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
70. Psychological support
Patients such as athletes, actors, musicians, attorneys,
and others in the public arena, on occasion, may need
the psychological support of a denture adhesive to avoid
a perceived or potentially embarrassing situation even
though the denture is well fitting. Avoidance of this
interim use of an adhesive should be encouraged for
fear of it becoming a daily routine.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
71. COMPROMISED ANATOMIC STRUCTURES
Compromised denture supporting hard and soft tissues
may be caused by a number of factors and may present
in many forms.
When evaluating the conditions and the many treatment
challenges that must be addressed by both the patient
and provider, the use of a denture adherent must be a
consideration. In some instances the recommended use
may be for a short duration; while in other instances it
may be for an indefinite period. Nevertheless, the use of
an adhesive can be a valuable adjunct.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
72. Elderly patients
Treating elderly patients who have had their
present prosthesis for years, which is most likely
has become ill-fitting, poses a dilemma for
providers. The first course of action would be to
recommend new dentures or reline the present
prosthesis.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
73. In such situations it may be advisable or
necessary to recommend the use of an adhesive
to help the patient adjust to the new occlusion,
contours, and general fit of the prosthesis.
Although the recommended interim use of an
adhesive may have been intended for a short
duration until the patient adjusted to the new
prosthesis, it very often becomes a permanent
part of the patient’s daily routine, especially with
patients who have memory problems (e.g. they
may not recall the original instructions of interim,
short- term use an adhesive)
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
74. PHYSICALLY/MENTALLY CHALLENGED PATIENTS
Complete denture patients who have disorders such as
Down syndrome or neuromuscular disorders affecting
muscular movement ,may benefit from the use of a denture
adhesive.
As we all know, successful denture treatment depends in
part on the best efforts of the provider and in part on the
patient’s ability to learn to function with what may initially be
viewed as a foreign object in the oral cavity.
Therefore, because the learning process is compromised,
the acceptance and function of a prosthesis may be
enhanced with the use of an adhesive.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
75. XEROSTOMIA
The causes of Xerostomia are many and are
usually related to, but not limited to, the
following: side effects of medication, radiation
therapy, hormonal changes, and systemic
disorders such as Sjogren’s syndrome. As the
flow of saliva becomes diminished, so does the
amount of saliva necessary for adequate
denture retention. Denture adhesives may be of
limited value depending on the degree of
Xerostomia.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
76. NEW DENTURES
It has been stated that the application of a minimal
amount of adhesive may be used upon the
insertion of new dentures to help overcome initial
anxiety. For some, this approach is not advisable
because experience has demonstrated that
interim use of an adhesive becomes indefinite
use.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
77. OSSEOINTEGRATED IMPLANTS
Patients who have had maxillary and mandibular
complete dentures and who have subsequently
replaced the mandibular complete denture with an
Osseointegrated implant-supported prosthesis may now
notice that the maxillary denture is not as stable or
retentive as it was when the mandibular complete
denture was in place. This may be real, because in the
past, the mandibular prosthesis when compared with the
maxillary prosthesis was the less stable of the two.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
78. As a result of the mandibular implant treatment,
the mandibular prosthesis has become the
more stable of the two, and the maxillary
prosthesis is tissue-supported-may now be
perceived to be or may in fact be negatively
affected. The issue and the methods of solving
a potential problem should be addressed with
the patient before implant treatment is initiated.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
79. The treatment options may include:
Learning to live with this treatment-induced dilemma.
Resorting to the use of an adhesive, despite the fact that
the maxillary denture is well fitting, as it has been
scientifically shown that well-fitting dentures can benefit
from the use of a denture adhesive.
Replace the maxillary complete denture with an implant-
supported prosthesis.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
80. REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES
Although denture adhesives are generally associated
with complete denture treatment, there are times when
they may be of value in removable partial denture
treatment. Depending on the design of the prosthesis
and position of the abutment teeth, a denture adhesive
may be advisable (case in point; a removable partial
denture with abutment teeth on one side of the maxillary
arch and no teeth on the opposite side of the arch to
support a prosthesis). In effect, some class I, II. Or IV
situations may require the use of a denture adhesive to
provide the maxillary prosthesis with necessary bilateral
retention and support.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
81. CONTRAINDICATIONS
As mentioned previously, denture adhesives are
contraindicated in case of Allergy, ill-fitting dentures.
Other examples of misuse or contraindication for denture
adhesive include, but are not limited to; midline fractures
in maxillary dentures; missing parts of a denture base or
flange in removable partial dentures where the abutment
teeth have been extracted or decayed beyond
restorability; and frank pathology or tissue hyperplasia.
Long-term use of a denture adhesive without periodic
professional advice is especially contraindicated.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
83. An attempt has been made to present an
overview of this controversial topic of over-the-
counter denture adherents. The proper use of a
denture adhesive can truly provide both dentist
and patient with a means of securing a
prosthesis despite the practitioners best efforts.
It is through a thorough knowledge of the
attributes and limitations of these products that
the dental profession can better guide patients in
the management of their prosthesis.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
85. Maximum incisal biting force in denture
wearers as influenced by adequacy of
denture-bearing tissues and the use of an
adhesive.
Willard J. Tarbet et al
J Dent Res 1981,Vol 60 Pg 115-119.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
86. The results of this study indicate that the quality of the
denture-bearing tissues can have a significant influence
on denture stability as reflected by maximum bite force
values (gnathodynamometer).
Even so, application of a test denture adhesive to well
adapted dentures produced a significant increase in
maximum biting force attained and a concomitant
reduction in denture dislodgment, both in subjects with
satisfactory support tissues and especially in those with
unsatisfactory tissues.
A denture adhesive thus can be of considerable benefit
to many denture wearer, even those with good quality
denture support
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
87. Efficiency of denture adhesive and their possible
influence an Oral Microorganisms.
G.D Stafford and C. Russell
J Dent Res 1971,vol 50 Pg832-836
The use of denture adhesive on ill-fitting denture and
new dentures will allow patients to increase the force
they can apply to foods in chewing.
In the instances of old, ill-fitting dentures, this
increase may be considerable.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
88. Adhesives allow much greater total pressure to
be applied to the mucosa. During the chewing of
a given quantity of food.
The Adhesives tested supported growth of
S.mitis and C. albicans but not N.pharhyngis.
The growth of C.albicans showed the presence

89. Observations of denture-supporting tissues
during six months of denture adhesive wearing.
Willard J Tarbet ,Eli Grossman

Mucosal irritation-incidence and severity was determined
in a study of 111 Denture wearers who regularly used a
Natural gum or a synthetic polymer denture adhesive
during a six month observation period.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
90. Conclusion:
The regular use by denture wearers of an
appropriate denture adhesive is not associated
with any increase incidence in Mucosal irritation.
The use of such an adhesive can in fact, reduce
the likelihood of the occurrence of tissue irritation
and, at the same time provide the denture
wearers with specific benefit both physical and
psychological.

Patient education and denture Adhesives.
Inclusion of denture adhesives in undergraduate dental
Curriculums.
Over all opinion of denture adhesives.

93. Conclusion: Panel of leading academic prosthodontists achieved
consensus agreement that denture adhesives:
1) Can enhance the fit of a denture and provide psychologic
comfort to the patient.
2) Can have negative influences on both the patient and the
dentist (by masking underlying denture problems, avoiding
necessary dental visits and by offering an alternative to good
clinical practices)

94. 3) Have specific uses during the fabrication of dentures, namely,
to stabilize trial bases and be useful at the trial arrangement of
teeth.
4) Are appropriate for use at the post-insertion phase for
conventional dentures, only in patients, with inadequate oral
anatomy.
5) Should be an integral component of the undergraduate
curriculum
6) Should be an integral part of patient education for all denture
patients with inclusion of both appropriate use and misuse.

Study used quantitative methods to measure the effects of a
denture adhesive on the Retention and stability of maxillary
denture.
Denture Movements were measured on 20 patients during
standardized chewing, swallowing and speaking activities with
No adhesives and then at 0,2,4,6,8 hrs after application of an
over the counter cream adhesive.

96. The use of denture adhesive produced a significant
improvement in the retention and stability of the maxillary
denture during various activities.
This improvement occurred with poorly-fitting and well-fitting
dentures alike.
Patients were able to produce significantly greater levels of
incisal bite force 8 hrs after an adhesive was applied to their
dentures.
