Effectiveness of a New Denture Adhesive Paste Containing Natural Ingredients (Food Grade) from a New Point of View: The Patient Satisfaction

The effectiveness of denture adhesives has been controversial topic in literature although recently dental evidence suggests the important role of the adhesive paste for dentures in some particular local and/ or systemic and emotional medical cases. It is our belief supported from evidences, in fact, that patients’ satisfaction is not only due to adhesiveness, but also to psychological factors and the pain caused by dental prostheses. The goal of this project was to test the effectiveness of a new denture adhesive paste containing natural ingredients (food grade) in particular pine resin considering a new point of view: patients’ complacency through Quality of Life (HRQL) questionnaires. Data reported during the project suggest that the new denture adhesive product with natural ingredients, Food Grade and resin pine is compliant with the requested properties.
