    Complains of: “My dentures feel loose a lot of the time and they’re making my mouth sore. They keep sticking to my lips, cheeks and tongue – it’s annoying”

    After treatment with Poligrip:“A dab of fixative before I put them in means I don’t have to worry about annoying slipping. They just stay in place a lot better”
