Secure Denture Adhesive Strips – Zinc Free – Waterproof – Comfortable Cushion Fit for Lowers – Extra Firm All-Day-Hold – No Mess – Clean Ingredients – 15 Strips (1 Pack)

After experimenting with a couple of other brands, I found that the Secure brand works best! Strips for lower dentures, while the paste works best for upper. One big thing I have done that has made using the strips far easier and less messy...........I now CUT THEM IN HALF BEFORE PEELING COVER OFF, LENGTHWISE! Basically doubles what I have. I found using an entire strip led to glops of the adhesive seeping out from underneath the dentures. With a half strip, I still have the same great hold but far less waste and glop! The half strips are just easier to fit into the denture as well. Plus, these are expensive for someone on disability pay, so I need them to work and last. The strips remind me of a thick piece of chewing gum, but they really work well. The fact that they are far safer to ingest.....NO ZINC............is a huge draw as well. I don't care how careful you are, you will ingest a small amount of the denture paste while you eat and or drink. I have learned that hot liquids will loosen ANY brand so I wait until after my morning coffee to put my teeth in. For me this is no biggie waiting. As far as taking them out at the end of the day, it has been a learning curve for me. They stick and I mean stick! The upper dentures need to be rocked a bit to get them to loosen. That may be from using more than I need, but for me I like to make sure they stay put. Also, there will still be residual paste/glue/glop, whatever you prefer to call it............after removing both upper and lower. I run warm water to get it off, but if you soak dentures overnight you can easily remove any of this as it turns into a loose gel. I take a q tip and wipe it off easily. There are times that I will have the same happen to the roof of my mouth. I rinse with very warm water and it comes out naturally. I just spit it into the trash or wipe with paper towel. This all may seem a bit much, but for me it is all worth it. Especially with this product being zinc free. I have not had any problems with paste leaking out of uppers. No matter what you choose, it is almost impossible to stop all leaking, but at least with the secure brand, you have a healthier and safer option. Cut those strips in half!!!!!! Save money!!!!!!!

If your dentures are slightly lose or you hate paste these strips work. I need to cut them down to fit my denture but this takes only a moment using scissors. I find them particularly good for my full bottom denture. You do not get the thick paste that seems to ooze out after hours of wear. If I am going to be gone like traveling or having a steak, I put the strip in and then add a little paste. Denture is solide, no movement. You can remove strip easily before or after cleaning your teeth.

So first off I want to say I’m new to the denture game. After trying all kinds of adhesives I found Secure denture adhesive is by far the best adhesive on the market. So, I decided to try these strips and see how they fair on my lowers. I might be doing something wrong because the instructions are rather vague. The shape of the strips are nothing like the shape of my denture and there’s no way to cut it to make it work unless I chop it up in pieces, but I don’t think that would be right. My denture is more shaped like a U and these more like a V. The strips are not sticky in the least and won’t adhere to the denture at all. I put a strip in my mouth and pressed and held it to my gums and even the roof of my mouth… nothing. Folded one over and squished it together and it barely stuck to itself. These strips are also expensive $9 for 15 so for a month it’ll be $18 but the denture cream is only $8. I also sprinkle some super poligrip powder on top of the secure adhesive to give it extra grip. The dentist completely jacked up my lowers and my lower gums so I have to do this. For the price of these strips, they should be made bigger to accommodate any shape denture then trim the excess. But like I said originally I might be doing it all wrong.

These strips were better than any other adhesive for dentures that I have tried. These strips do hold for hours. Even after drinking hot coffee they still keep my lower denture in place. I only gave four stars because they do not last all day. They do tend to give up by the time I'm trying to eat dinner. However, now I just add new strips or the Secure cream a little while before dinner and I'm good for dinner and the rest of the day. I wish I only had to apply something once a day but I'm thrilled that I can at least eat and drink throughout the day and only have to apply something twice. The other strips and creams that I have tried didn't allow me to eat or drink at all. I've only had dentures for a couple months and I was getting very depressed because it did not seem like I would ever be able to eat or drink while using dentures. I feel so much better now after trying these strips. I was even able to eat a sandwich without having to use a knife and fork! I had to be careful how I bit into it but that's because I'm still learning how to eat with dentures. There is a slight tingle when I first put the denture in but it only lasts about a minute or so. It is not bad enough that it would keep me from using it or make me afraid that I was hurting myself. These strips are way too big for my dentures but I've been able to cut them in such a way that I get three uses out of one full strip. That definitely helps with the cost. The other thing that I like about these strips is that they have no flavor. I don't like the products that have meant flavoring because then everything tastes like mint. Also there was another brand of cream that wasn't flavored but it had a bitter or sour taste. Not only do these strips work but they don't have that mint taste or that sour taste. When I first ordered them I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get them out once they were in. It takes a little bit of time to get them out but you just have to work them a little. Then I use a toothbrush to brush my gums with warm water to get the any leftover adhesive off them. The strips peel right off especially when I soak them in the secure cleaning solution. I will definitely be ordering more of these. I know there is nothing else out there that even comes close to working as well. I hope they never stop selling these on Amazon because I have not found them in any stores. Try them, you will be pleasantly surprised at how well they work.

For teeth

Product sure helps bottom and upper dentures fit no sliding and my brother can now eat his food without taking his dentures out

These strips work well - better than another product I tried (which is a spread on paste - messy and strong chemical taste). Following the instructions it made wear the lower denture more comfortable and is also helpful in excluding crumbs etc. Depending on use one strip is basically used per day - possibly 2 days - but then in combination with some creme fixative. There are 15 in a box, so I would recommend 2 boxes per month - the cost then adds up - but worth it if it helps.

Good as expected
