Can I use denture adhesive if I have 2 lower dental implants but the lower denture has not been clipped in yet to the post?

Question

I had dental implants put in about 6 months ago. I had all of my teeth pulled and received dentures on the top and got 2 dental implants on the bottom. Can I use denture adhesive safely, while waiting for my dentures to be clipped in? These are also my temporary dentures.

You can use denture adhesive, by now, six months after your implants should be fully integrated to the bone, so the adhesive should not interfiere with this process. Just make sure you keep both denture and the gingival area clean after using. Good luck

Hello, if you had implants placed 6 months ago and your gums are fully healed you can use denture glue while you wait for the to be clipped over your dentures, yet it would be best to have them clipped soon, regular implant integration takes 4-6 months so you are safe to have your dentures attached to your implants. Hope this helps!
