So a lot of people have been asking me about the denture cream scare. My opinion on this is that any denture cream is safe, but you must use as directed and remember everything in moderation. I believe these people were using more and more amounts of the cream for longer and longer periods of time. The bigger problem is more likely that their dentures did not fit properly. If you know someone that is using a lot of denture cream (grandmother,uncle) let them know they should go see their dentist and get their dentures refit(relined) so that they have a denture that fits properly and they won't have to use a ridiculous amount of denture adhesive. If they are still concerned pick up a denture adhesive that does not contain Zinc. Check out this website for more info http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/02/18/health/main6220491.shtml
