Q. Why do I have to heat a thermoplastic denture adhesive for it to work?
A. Heat activates the thermoplastic molecules to become pliable and cold firms the thermoplastic.

Q. How will the thermoplastic denture adhesive secure my dentures?
A. It’s simple – thermoplastic denture adhesive and the saliva in your mouth will create the suction needed to secure your dentures. If you have a dry mouth, you may need to wet your mouth for the first hour after applying our product.

Q. Will the thermoplastic denture adhesive eliminate sore spots?
A. Yes, the thermoplastic denture adhesive will act as a shock absorbent between the dentures and your gums by creating a cushion layer to protect your gums from the hard rough denture. 

Q. My denture will not stay in after first application.
A. If your denture is not creating suction right after your application, this is caused by a lack of saliva in your mouth. Please try drinking some liquids and waiting a few moments for your mouth to secrete saliva.

Q. The product is starting to shift some in my denture after 6 days.

A. When you start to notice the product not performing as well as it was the beginning of your application, then it's time to re-due the application. We recommend changing your application every 6-7 days so Comfort Lining can preform properly. 

Q. How will this adhesive secure my lower denture?
A. Comfort Lining works very well for lower dentures by creating weight and suction with the cushion layer by working with one's saliva, similar to how a suction cup works. 

Q.Will Comfort Lining work if i currently have a soft or hard reline on my dentures?

A. We cannot guarantee that Comfort Lining will bond to your current soft or hard liner. Comfort Lining works by bonding to a clean, dry surface and most soft liners are made from a porous material.

Q. Comfort Lining won't adhere and keeps pulling off. 

This can be caused from residue created by paste adhesives. Start off by drying you denture with a paper towel, then take your finger tip and feel the base, if by touch the base is smooth and easy to glide your finger across chances are you have adhesive residue left behind. Try brushing your dentures with a good toothpaste, if this doesn't work, try some dawn dish soap, if no dawn then any dish soap will do the trick. Dish soaps will dry out any oils or residue left behind from your previous denture paste.

You can always try taking a cotton ball and dabbing it in some rubbing alcohol then cleaning the denture base. 

All denture creams or pastes leave a residue behind, even if you cannot see the residue it's still there. hence that funny taste in your mouth after using a cream adhesive.
