Question for a specialist
For people who wear removable dentures, today there is a wide range of fixing creams that help them feel more comfortable and confident in everyday life. However, choosing an option that meets the highest quality standards without studying detailed information about products in this category and without practical experience is quite difficult. That is why we continue to introduce you to the most famous and most effective means. This material is about ROCS cream
Manufacturer information
Rox cream is created by specialists from the group (DRC). This is a Russian-Swiss enterprise that has several large production sites and three research laboratories. The company creates cosmetics and medications, but it is most famous in the world for its oral care products – toothpastes and toothbrushes. In 2014, the ROCS brand received the seal of approval1 from the Russian Dental Association for high-quality toothbrushes for adults and children.
Cream for dentures "Rox" was developed in a scientific laboratory in Switzerland, so the company positions it as a product that has properties and characteristics that meet international quality standards.
Description and composition of ROCS cream
This product is suitable for fixing partial removable and fully removable devices. It has a viscous thick consistency. Due to its composition, it ensures strong adhesion of the prosthesis to the mucous membrane, creates a tight connection between them, which prevents the entry of air, food particles and liquids, as well as bacteria. The fixing cream contains a minimum amount of ingredients: silicon dioxide, menthol, lecithin, potassium and sodium salts, water-soluble polymers, xylitol. Due to water-soluble polymers that absorb moisture, the cream increases in mass and creates the necessary layer.
The composition does not contain zinc or dyes, so it can be used by people prone to allergic reactions and those who have sensitive mucous membranes. Thanks to a component such as xylitol, the product has an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effect, it helps fight the first signs of gum inflammation: bleeding, swelling, itching and soreness.

Xylitol is a natural sweetener obtained from vegetables and fruits. This component is safe for people who still have natural teeth in their mouths, because... it prevents the formation of caries and promotes enamel remineralization. Numerous studies also confirm that xylitol improves the overall health of the oral cavity and has a beneficial effect on the mucous membranes.
Reasons why Rocs cream is the best option
- Rocs fixing cream for dentures provides up to 12 hours of perfect fixation: two layers, the gingival layer and the denture bed, adhere securely to each other. Twelve hours is exactly the period of time that most of us need to be fully awake and go out into the world, communicate with colleagues and friends,
- smile aesthetics: it will be impossible to notice that you have a prosthesis, it is held so securely in your mouth and does not cause any trouble. In addition, the cream gives a natural shine to artificial teeth,
- the composition does not contain fluorine: it is suitable for those people who suffer from chronic diseases, disorders of the endocrine system, renal failure, bone osteoporosis,
- effective for fixing removable and partially removable devices,
- normalizes the microflora of the oral cavity,
- safety: if the owner of the prosthesis accidentally swallows the product, nothing will happen to him,
- for those who have teeth in their mouths: helps cope with increased enamel sensitivity,
- Another advantage of Rox cream for dentures is that, despite its lightness, it creates an airtight film and serves as reliable protection for the gums from food getting under the structure. What does it mean? The gums will be healthy, there will be no inflammation on them,
- fresh breath for the whole day: the taste of metol will appeal to the owner of artificial teeth. This is much more pleasant than feeling the aftertaste of a chemical composition and thinking that there is some strange glue in your mouth. All sensations will be completely natural,
- the opportunity to enjoy your favorite food: anywhere, be it work or home, Rox denture cream will not allow the denture to fall out of your mouth. Thanks to the patented formula, it interacts with saliva and does not lose its fixing properties even from eating thermally processed foods, such as hot or cold dishes.
Indications and contraindications for the use of ROCS composition
“Rox” cream for dentures should be used when the quality of fixation of removable appliances in the oral cavity has significantly weakened. It is necessary to remember that if the structures themselves were initially made with high quality and taking into account your anatomical features, then this situation, in principle, cannot happen immediately after their installation. But after a few years, the quality of fixation of removable devices may quite naturally weaken. This is due to the atrophy of the jaw bone, which will occur under the dentures, and therefore subsidence of the structures in some areas.
If the prosthesis needs correction or repair, as well as relining, then fixing creams will not correct the situation. Adhesive gels and compounds will also not help if the removable device was poorly manufactured and fitted. Here the problem needs to be solved by contacting a professional orthopedic doctor.
You can also use ROCS denture cream when they rub soft tissues, causing irritation of the mucous membrane. The product will make it easier to get used to removable devices, help relieve discomfort, and help prevent food particles from getting stuck under the denture.

Cream "Korega" for dentures
One of the leaders in the fixing agents market. The line consists of 3 types:
- extra strong mint;
- neutral;
- refreshing.
According to data, it ensures fixation of a removable denture throughout the whole day. It comes with mint or neutral flavor. The cream does not contain zinc, so it can be used on an ongoing basis.
How to apply cream
Fixing cream for dentures "Korega" is applied in strips to the inside of the previously cleaned insert structure. It is also necessary to rinse your mouth to remove any remaining food.
After pressing the prosthesis to the gums, the product should not enter the oral cavity. After attaching the structure, it is not recommended to immediately start eating. For strong fixation, you need to wait 10-15 minutes.
Removing the prosthesis
Corega glue reliably fixes dentures, so it is possible that you will need to remove the structure yourself at the end of the day. It's easy to do:
- First you need to rinse your mouth with warm water.
- Then, using rocking movements, try to remove the denture from the oral cavity.
- If it is still fixed, you need to lightly press on the gum mucosa from the cheeks and remove the denture.
- After removing the denture from the oral cavity, it should be thoroughly rinsed using special products recommended by the manufacturer of the fixing cream.
Disadvantage information
The main disadvantage is the relatively high cost. The product is sold in 40 ml tubes. For one tube you will have to pay about 250 rubles. On average, this amount of product, when used rationally (once a day), will last you for one or several months. However, some reviews indicate that “Rox” has a rather viscous consistency, it is difficult to apply and distribute evenly over the prosthesis, so calculating the required concentration of cream for comfortable use can be quite difficult.
Glue selection criteria
When choosing the appropriate denture adhesive for his patient, the doctor takes into account the characteristics of the oral cavity and his experience. But no one prevents the patient from choosing the right product for himself. Glue production occurs in three variations:
- liquid;
- medium viscosity;
- viscous.
The liquid composition has a higher consumption. But it is very convenient to use this remedy in the very first stages of wearing dentures. It takes a lot of time to fix the structure, so everything moves to a cream of a more viscous consistency.
Glue is applied to the structure in strips. There should be 3 or 4 of them. After attaching the prosthesis, the glue begins to be evenly distributed. If a person uses a prosthesis for the first time and has not yet gotten used to it, then his perception of taste is distorted. Dentists recommend initially avoiding flavored glue so as not to worsen the situation.
According to the manufacturers of fixing agents, the adhesion duration is 12 or 24 hours. But this time does not imply the influence of other factors, such as food intake, the chemical composition of food and laughter. If we refer to practice, the total duration of wearing a denture using glue is 9 hours. Each manufacturer has its own quality characteristics.
Instructions for use
To have a positive effect, the cream for fixing dentures must be used correctly and according to the instructions:
- apply the product only to a previously cleaned prosthesis,
- first apply the product pointwise, and then distribute it evenly over the entire surface,
- remove any remaining food from your mouth, rinse your mouth thoroughly and spit out the saliva,
- Press the structure firmly against the mucous membrane for a few seconds and close your jaws.
Once the removable device has been secured in your mouth, refrain from consuming food or liquid. You will be able to have a snack only 15-30 minutes after this. If you start eating earlier, the cream will not have time to fully demonstrate its fixing properties and form an airtight layer, and the denture will not stay in place well.
ROCS cream is a super-strong hold product, so if you're just starting to use it, be careful not to apply a large amount of product at once.
Adhesive for dentures: features of use
The main role of the adhesive composition is to fix removable dental structures to the alveolar process. In this case, the prosthesis itself can be made of nylon or plastic. Glue can be used alone or in combination with other fasteners.
But this application is not the only one. Glue can be used to fix permanent structures for a certain time. For example, the cement under the crown fixed on the front side suddenly collapsed. If you can’t go to the dentist right away, you can take glue for fixing removable dentures and use it to secure the crown. This way, you can wait for a while and then still see a doctor.
In addition, glue for fixing dentures performs such secondary functions as freshening breath and guaranteeing a pleasant aroma from the mouth. Thanks to reliable fixation, a person is completely confident in the reliability of the prosthesis and feels much more comfortable. The use of glue allows you to avoid rubbing of the gums and the development of inflammation, which often occurs due to a loose fit of the structure. With fixing glue, you can be sure that food debris will not get under the denture, because the space between it and the gum is filled with a fixing compound.
Product storage rules
ROCS fixing cream will retain its positive properties throughout its shelf life (2 years from the date of manufacture) only if you store it correctly. Remember that the product should not be left open or placed in the refrigerator. It has a dense consistency, after exposure to high temperatures and air, the composition will become even more dense and dry, which is why you will have difficulty applying it. In addition, if you do not seal the tube tightly, pathogenic microorganisms may enter it.
Side effect: can it occur from using the cream?
The manufacturer claims that the product is safe even if swallowed, but with daily use and abuse of the composition (excessive application, use more than once a day), some patients may experience a negative reaction of the body in the form of nausea, increased saliva production, gastrointestinal upset, the appearance of an allergic reaction or headache.
