Denture adhesives like powders, creams, and liquids are safe for improving denture comfort. Unlike pads and liners, these adhesives do not cause tissue damage, making them a justifiable option for patients.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Prosthodontics
  • Biomaterials

Context:

  • Historically, dental professionals have advised against denture adhesives due to concerns about tissue damage.
  • Previous research focused on denture pads and do-it-yourself liners, which have been linked to irreversible harm to denture-bearing tissues.

Purpose:

  • To review the scientific literature regarding the safety and efficacy of various types of denture adhesives.
  • To evaluate the potential risks associated with different forms of denture adhesives.

Summary:

  • A literature review indicates that powder, cream, and liquid denture adhesives have not been associated with harmful effects on denture-bearing tissues.
  • In contrast, older forms like denture pads and self-applied liners have been linked to irreversible tissue damage.

Impact:

  • Denture adhesives, specifically powders, creams, and liquids, can be safely prescribed to enhance patient comfort and satisfaction with their dentures.
  • Dentists should educate patients on the appropriate selection and application of these safe denture adhesive products.
