Poligrip Comfort Strips offer a mechanical-adhesive hybrid solution designed for users seeking a mess-free application. This Zinc-free formula relies on synthetic polymers to create a structural gasket between the hardware and the palate, conditioning the fit for all-day wear.
Active Attribute Analysis
These strips utilize a dry-to-wet activation system. The primary structural agent, PVM/MA Copolymer, expands when hydrated to create a physical barrier. Cellulose Gum ensures a viscous, non-irritating surface that helps prevent food particles from lodging underneath the prosthetic. This design eliminates the "overflow" often associated with traditional adhesive creams.
- Zinc-Free: Formulated for long-term, high-frequency use.
- Consistency: Pre-cut strips ensure precise dosing and no mess.
- Barrier Tech: Helps maintain a non-irritating seal against the gingiva.
Application Insight
To maximize the hold, strips should be applied to a dry denture and placed against a moist palate. It is noted that doubling the strips on poorly-fitting hardware may lead to adhesive failure.
