    Denture creams
    Just found this site Numbness Arms Legs Tingling Dentures Muscle Weakness. Can denture creams really be this dangerous? I know my mom uses a lot of poligrip, a couple times a day - she claims she can't afford new dentures

    I never heard of this in particular but I have been studying natural remedies for years and lately I have been really having eye openers.
    I went to a seminar by Dr. Pompa and he basically said that anything natural has a right spin while anything man made synthetic has a left spin. Anything man made has detrimental side effects somewhere down the road.
    I have even been hearing about the bad effects of micro organizisms in ice caused by the build up as the ice goes through the tubes.
    I started drinking fountain drinks at work about a year and a half ago and I believe it has caused me nerve damage.
    Even many of the foods we eat cause numbness and other health problems.
    I can't eat message that is in most prepacked, processed or fast foods.

    The best way to find out is either Google for more articles like the one you posted above or get a list of ingredients and list them here and I will look them up.

    I have never heard of this claim either. I am aware though that many denture wearers use way more adhesive than they need to. Tell your mom that all she needs is 3 small dots of adhesive in her dentures. If she needs to use more perhaps she should consider having a reline done which is less costly than having new dentures made. A denturist will generally do it for less than a dentist will.

    I've never heard of this happening either. As Flossie suggested a reline is a cheaper way of remedying the problem. She may also try Sea Bond strips, which aren't as messy as the creams and help to increase suction. Some people like those better.
