Dentures and Polygrip

I just had dentures (top only) put in in January and I'm getting used to them just fine...except...I found that with certain foods I'd eat my dentures would go sliding all over my mouth...so I bought some poly grip which holds them real nice
but I find after getting my teeth out at night, removing the poly grip is quite a chore, and not always pleasant...does
any one know of product that makes it easier to remove it?

Thank you

Jim

Loss of retention may result from inadequate border seal, overextension of posterior denture flange, or imbalanced occlusion. A well fabricated full upper denture does'nt require denture adhesive to enhance retention. Going back to your dentist to have more adjustment is advised.If your dentist can not achieve optimal result, you may need to see a prosthodontist.
