Denture Cream Side Effects

It is estimated that more than 35 million Americans currently use dentures, and all may be at risk to zinc toxicity. All denture wearers use a denture cream, such as Fixodent, to help secure the dentures in the mouth. When dentures become loose as time goes by, denture wearers are forced to use more and more denture cream to compensate.

Possible Side Effects of Using Denture Creams

Due to the presence of zinc in denture cream, regular use of the product can result in serious side effects. These include zinc poisoning and copper deficiency, which can eventually both lead to other serious medical conditions.

Zinc poisoning, or Hyperzincemia, can result in serious nerve damage called neuropathy. Neuropathy can be irreversible and may eventually lead to paralysis. In addition to neuropathy, victims may experience a loss of cognitive function, and an impaired immune system.

Copper deficiency, or Hypocupremia, can result in anemia and eventually Osteoporosis. Anemia causes low levels of red blood cells, resulting in fatigue and frequent dizziness. Osteoporosis leads to weakened bones, fractures and curvature of the spine.

Denture Cream Side Effect Symptoms

Denture cream side effects can be detected through a number of symptoms. Muscle weakness and heavy breathing are common. Many have developed skin lesions and experienced seizures. Zinc Poisoning sufferers have reported feeling depressed and irritable, with frequent confusion due to a loss in cognitive function.

Neuropathy, which is caused by zinc poisoning, can usually be detected through frequent numbness and or a tingling sensation in the extremities. It is also associated with a lack of coordination and poor balance.

Signs of a copper deficiency are related, and may include general fatigue and an abnormal heart rate or blood pressure. People have also reported diminished reflexes, vomiting and diarrhea.
