fittydent Denture Adhesive is worldwide the only waterproof Denture Adhesive.
fittydent must be applied on a clean and completely dry denture. It has higher viscosity than conventional adhesives due to its unique composition, thus less is more. Less Adhesive – more Bonding.
No. In the perfect case the dentures stays on the gum like suction. When the shape of the gum changes or the patient don’t wear the dentures regularly the perfect fit can get lost. Then to fill in the gap between gum and dentures the patient needs support.
fittydent Denture Adhesive and fittydent Denture Adhesive Cushions consists of two main components: Polyvinylacetate (PVA) and Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Polyvinylacetate is the adhesive. It works only on a dry surface to create the bonding effect (like chewing gum). To keep the mucosa dry, we use Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) which works like a “sponge” to absorb moisture in the mouth. When the “sponge” is saturated with moisture, the mucosa becomes wet, Polyvinylacetate loses bonding effect and the denture stays in place only by suction. Now you can easily remove the dentures.
Normally, there is no need to remove the denture earlier, as long as no food particles get trapped underneath. However, in specific cases – like accidents, x-ray…the denture can be removed by little force. Pull on the back up or down. It will be painless and will cause no negative effects, but residues of the adhesive might be left on the gum.
fittydent Cleansing Tablets with pH 9 are recommended.
Because of the ingredients which make it non-water-soluble the consistence is a bit thicker. So please try to spread it out with a wet finger.
We do not recommend. Due to the bigger surface, it can be that the dentures stays for 2 days or more. If food trappings get underneath, it can cause inflammations.
NO. The cotton will adhere to the dentures.
NO. The pointy ends scratch on the surface.
Not recommended. The Adhesive will not bond immediately. But it is possible.
Yes, but there must be at least a reasonable surface.
It is because of the alcohol. The alcohol is for disinfecting. If you wait a bit longer before inserting – the alcohol evaporates.
Even if the alcohol evaporate – the decision lays within the user.
Impossible. The amount of Alcohol used in one Adhesive application is way too less to be detected it in the blood.
This is when the Adhesive wasn’t stored properly. Mostly too warm. The ingredients split. It is called Syneresis. Please get in contact with us.
Did you try less is more? Spread it out with the wet finger.
Uppers or lowers? (Lowers would maybe more bond with the Cushions?)
Are you a first time fittydent user? Less is more! The opposite to the competitors where it is “more is more”.
Did something in your medications change? Excessive saliva can cause a change in bonding time.
Dry mouth in general. Woman in Menopause, Diabetics, Chemo Patients.
Cleansing Tablets
Too much adhesive
This usually comes from irregular cleaning. Please use the Cleansing Tablets and to completely dissolve the residues, leave the denture in the cleaning solution overnight the first time you use it. After that, the recommended 10 minutes are enough.
If the bonding effect has not lessened at the end of the day, simply leave dentures in the mouth overnight and brush them with a toothbrush like your own teeth. Apply less adhesive next day.
Yes, but an increased amount of fittydent Denture Adhesive should be used in this case. If the lower denture does not stay in place for one day, fittydent Denture Adhesive Cushions should be used instead.
Yes. fittydent Denture Adhesive creates a strong bonding effect on dry surface. Therefore, the bonding time will be prolonged.
fittydent Denture Adhesive has been sold for about 30 years around the world. No serious allergic reaction has been reported.
However, people can be allergic to any kind of food, therefore allergic reaction can not be completely ruled out.
Soothes and prevents gum inflammations.
The Cushions are like a double-sided tape. Between the upper and the lower foil is the Adhesive layered on a cotton mesh. After peeling off the foil, the Adhesive works immediately.
Those denture wearers who have flat and/or narrow lower jaw need to use fittydent Denture Adhesive Cushions instead of fittydent Denture Adhesive Cream.
The Cushions guarantee a secure hold, even in these difficult cases. The Cushions are waterproof, therefore they are also effective for patients with excessive saliva.
Not recommended. The Adhesive will not bond immediately.
On lower partial dentures we do not recommend. The surface is too small.
No. After the cleansing is done you can store it in a Denture Box.
It is impossible to find a perfect shape.
Please try to warm it in your hands. The adhesive becomes warm and is easier to apply.
NO. The two products will not bond together.
If the lower jaw is really extreme flat and narrow – the saliva gets underneath the denture.
Did it ooze out? Then I am afraid you produce too much saliva and the Cushions are faster saturated then planned.
Yes, the Cushions are specially designed for this. unless there is no natural barrier from your jaw.
Yes. fittydent Denture Adhesive Cushions create an extra strong bonding effect on dry surface. Therefore, the bonding time will be prolonged.
fittydent Denture Adhesive Cushions are sold for about 30 years around the world. No serious allergic reaction has been reported.

pH 9 is alkaline and is not aggressive towards metal. It is smooth and soft to the dentures and removes the non-water-soluble residues of the fittydent Adhesive products.
No. pH 9 is smooth and soft to metal parts.
No. pH 9 is smooth and soft to acrylic parts.
Yes, there is a slight bleaching effect.
We recommend 10 minutes. If there is a build up on residues soak it overnight.
Please consult your doctor if you feeling sick.
We do not recommend, cleansing effect is gone.
Yes – do not use too hot water. Thermoplastic materials can lose the shape in hot water.
We did a survey with a smaller opening but due to the consistence of the Adhesive for elderly customers it was not easy to squezze the Adhesive out. But if you can not figure out how to apply the Adhesive properly you can use a wet finger to spread it on the surface.
