The science behind Polident Adhesive
Polident adhesive helps improve denture performance
Proven to hold dentures for up to 12 hours and increase bite force by approximately 1–2kg*1,2
*vs. no adhesive
Dual polymer system
Polident advesives’ dual polymer system is designed to maintain denture performance when individual patient factors limit retention.
Polident fixative dual polymer system consists of two ingredients: carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polyvinyl methyl ether/maleic acid (PVM/MA).
- Two polymers are activated on contact with saliva, expand and cross-link to create an elastic polymer network
- This elastic network can resist both tensile forces and shear stresses
- Increasing both retention and stability of the denture2
Maintaining denture performance
The Polident denture adhesive dual polymer system is designed to maintain denture performance when patients need it the most.
