ProSoft Denture Reliner-Relines 2 Denture Plates

I've used this stuff for years and I can honestly say it is well worth what you pay for it. I've had a full set of dentures for many years and have never had to use it on my upper ones, just the lower and it works exceedingly well.The product is very simple to use, just mix the contents of the bottle with the powder, stir and wait until it thickens enough to put in your denture. The instructions state to apply it when it is the consistency of honey but my advice is, I wait until it's a bit thicker, almost to the point it will not pour out on its own and then I pour in into the denture. This way, it's not so thin that it squeezes out too easily and it seems to give you better coverage. I also leave it in for about 5 minutes rather than the 3 they suggest. Make sure and bite down not really hard but just a normal bite to hold it in place and to form around your gums. Be prepared for the stuff to ooze out and get between your cheeks, etc. but this is good because you want full coverage and once it sets while the denture is in your mouth, you remove it and trim the excess off. NOTE: TOO little is not good, it's better to have more than not enough! When you mix the whole batch, you'll have plenty to do either denture. You could halve the amount and have enough, MAYBE, to do one denture or maybe even enough to do both dentures at one time but I would suggest not trying to do half at a time as you might get the mix ratio wrong and the product may not harden or perform as well. And if you try to do both dentures, you may not have enough to do both properly. Again, I can tell you emphatically, TOO little is a LOT worse than too much!The only issue with this product is, it will have an after taste for a few days. Some soak their dentures in mouthwash, use baking soda or other type of product and they claim it helps take the after taste away after a day or so. To me, I just endure it because it's not really THAT bad and it goes away after a few days anyway.As far as how long it will last, I don't recommend leaving it on as long as I have but I will tell you, I've left mine on for almost a year a couple of times and it's held up just fine. The product does tend to get stiffer the longer it stays on but if you trim it right when you first use it and don't leave any sharp edges, that won't be a problem. Honestly, I usually try and redo mine about every 3-6 months and I never intended to leave it on that long but, I've gotten so used to it, I forgot a couple of times and when I thought about redoing it, it was almost a year since I bought my last batch. That says a lot about the comfort and durability of the product!If you'll follow the directions properly, you won't have an issue with this product and you'll be happy with the results. And it'll save you a ton of money not having to see a dentist every time a reline is in order.

I use this reline once every 2 or 3 months I have a very strong gag reflex, so when I first got my dentures I was absolutely panicked about how I was going to manage. I'm not going to be able to anchor them with implants for another year, so I was stuck with pulling them out of my mouth all day long. Every time my tongue touched that hard upper palate I started to gag. I asked my dentist to shorten the palate and she did a tiny bit - not enough. So I took my dremel and I adjusted the denture by removing tiny bits of the palate, wearing them for a week or so, removing more, wearing, removing etc. Finally, I can wear them all day without gagging. However, I had to trade - I have a denture that's easy to wear but I gave up that good suction at the roof of my mouth for keeping them in. I must use adhesive, which, believe me is just fine considering how comfortable they are now. However, as my gums shrink the adhesive becomes less and less effective. In order to have good results from the glue, the denture really needs to fit well. So, I reline them regularly and I have a nice fit that is easily glued in place.Also, as my gums shrink the dentures look less natural in my mouth. I wind up with what I call denture mouth, where the teeth are too far in and don't show as well when I smile. So, when I reline, I place them in my mouth in a way that looks natural - not pressing too hard - and that fills in the gaps created from the shrinking gums. The result is a very comfortable denture that fits well and allows the denture glue to get good adhesion.This product is super simple to use. It comes with instructions - mix the product, wait a few minutes, pour into denture, put in your mouth, bite down for 3 minutes, remove, put in cold water, trim excess. If you have the gagging problem like I do, I suggest you tilt your head forward and down while the reline is setting in your mouth. This prevents any spill-over from touching the back of your mouth. If you start gagging you will not get the same good results in terms of fit. The hardest part about this product is removing the remnants of the old reline. I soak my denture in very hot water, and I pull the reline out with my jewelry pliers. I have to keep putting them back into the hot water because the old reline cools quickly and is difficult to remove when it's not soft and pliable.After I'm done, I always soak mine in mouthwash for a couple of minutes because the taste can be pretty awful at first. Even after the mouthwash soak I can still taste the bitterness of the reline a tiny bit, and it stays that way for a day or two. It isn't too terrible if you do the mouthwash soak.Before I started using the soft reline, I soaked my dentures overnight. I find that the reline lasts much longer if I do not do that. You can still soak them all night if you want, but you will have to reline more often. Now, I soak mine with the cleaning product while I'm in the shower. At night, I just rinse ad brush, dry them and put them in a container.
