Denture adhesive is a temporary bonding material between a denture base and oral tissues. Residue can remain on the palate, gums, or denture.
What can you do next?
Take out the denture, swish warm water, and gently brush the gums; clean the denture separately with warm water and a soft denture brush.
When should you seek dental care?
Seek care for persistent soreness, bleeding, swelling, foul taste, or an appliance that will not release. Do not use solvents, boiling water, or sharp tools.
What should you ask the dentist?
Ask whether the denture fit is causing excess adhesive use and which cleanser suits its materials.
