Definitions
- TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to improvements in adhesives, in par ⁇ ticular improved denture adhesives.
- Dentures function as a substitute for missing teeth and serve as a replacement for all or a portion of the teeth ordinarily found in the oral cavity. Although dentures generally are skillfully prepared, often they do not fit perfectly. Moreover, no matter how satisfactory at first, after a period of time the fit of the denture becomes " loose and imperfect due to natural shrinkage and changes in the gums, mucous tissues, and the like. Loose and imperfectly fitted dentures usually are corrected and stabilized by the use of a denture stabilizer. Denture stabilizers are used to fill the interstices between the dentures and the gums or tissues.
- a denture stabilizer Prior to placement of the denture in the oral cavity, a denture stabilizer is applied to the denture-plate surface which, for a perfect fit, should uniformly contact the gums and mucous tissues.
- the denture stabilizer is formulated not only for its adherent proper- ties, but also to provide a cushion or gasket between the denture and the gums or tissues, thereby positioning the denture securely in the oral cavity.
- one daily application of such a composition should function as an effective means for insulating, cushioning, and securely posi ⁇ tioning the denture.
- the composition should retain its characteris ⁇ tics and properties in the typical powder and cream forms during storage under various climatic conditions such as high temperature and humidity; be readily and easily capable of application to the denture surface; not be irritating or uncomfortable to the user; be safe and nontoxic; have no disagreeable odor or color; have no unpalatable taste; optionally provide antiseptic and germicidal properties for preventing or inhibiting the growth of organisms ordinarily found in the mouth; and function as an agent for prevention of putrefaction or malodorous decomposition of foods or secretions lodging beneath or adjacent to the denture.
- the stabilizing material must be capable of 5 imbibing water and saliva and swelling, so as to fill the interstices between the denture and the gum or mucous tissues.
- the stabilizer should not attack or damage the denture, as by causing a crazing of the denture-plate material. Additionally, the stabilizer should be stable to bacteria, molds and enzyme systems found in the oral cavity, 10 and have a pH that is nonirritating to the oral mucosa, generally 5-8.5, preferably a pH around neutrality.
- the mechanical strength of the stabilizing mass be it gel or colloid, formed by imbibition of water should be great enough to securely maintain the position of the denture under normal use, and not so great as to make denture removal 15 difficult when desired, or as to damage or injure the gums, tissues or denture upon removal.

- Each of the indicated salts may be abbreviated by the percent of calcium/percent of zinc/percent sodium neutralization as done in Examples I through V.
- Example V The MVE/MA copolymeric anhydride-to-acid hydrolysis procedure outlined in Example V is repeated. To a vessel containing 8.5 kg of purified water heated to 85°C is added 16.5 grams of strontium hy- droxide octahydrate. With vigorous mixing, 99.4 grams of calcium hydroxide is slowly added. After addition is complete, the tempera ⁇ ture of the slurry is kept constant with high speed mixing. While maintaining the heat and constant mixing, 34.9 grams of methyl vinyl ether-maleic anhydride copolymer are added to the reaction vessel containing the alkali dispersion over a 20 minute period. This produces a mixed partial calcium strontium salt of methyl vinyl ether-maleic acid copolymer.
- Example IX Denture stabilizing powder compositions are prepared by blending together the following:
- Example X In use, the above powders (typically 0.1-1 g) are placed on a premoistened denture, allowed to hydrate briefly, and the denture is inserted in the mouth and pressed into place, all in the manner of denture adhesives well-known in the art.
