Leading Denture Cream Litigation Firm Welcomes GSK Announcement of Removal of Zinc From Its Denture Creams

Date:2/18/2010

d by zinc-laced denture adhesives," said Scott Nabers, partner at Blizzard, McCarthy and Nabers, who is handling the firm's cases in the Philadelphia Mass Tort Program. "Poligrip products are also not the only adhesives on the market spiked with the mineral. Procter & Gamble, the makers of Fixodent, should also withdraw it's zinc-containing denture cream product as it carries the same zinc poisoning risks to consumers."

Over the last two years, three separate scientific studies have reported a direct connection between the use of zinc-laden denture adhesives and serious neurological disorders such as neuropathy. A 2008 study published in Neurology concluded, "chronic excessive use [of denture adhesives] may result in…serious neurological disease." Another study published last year in NeuroToxicology identified 11 patients suffering zinc-related neurological damage and concluded that the "use of denture cream appear[ed] to be the sole source of excess zinc in these patients."
