What can be done to provisionally bond the denture?

The only possibility to fix the prosthesis temporarily is to use denture adhesive cream or adhesive gel. These adhesives can fix the denture parts together for a short time, even if only unstably, so that the denture can at least be worn on the way to the dentist. Furthermore, these adhesives are especially suitable for the oral cavity and are not harmful to health.

Other means such as adhesives or similar can damage the acrylic, so that large parts have to be removed and, in the worst case, the prosthesis has to be produced again. Furthermore, they are hazardous to health or even carcinogenic. We therefore advise against them. If the prosthesis breaks, the affected person should quickly take all fragments to the dentist, who will take an impression of the prosthesis if necessary and quickly pass the repair on to the dental technician.
