denture adhesive interfering with
your enjoyment of food. well now there is no need for
that, your teeth are firmly attached
without the need for those sticky pastes.

tissue to support the delicate muscles
of the face. Your youthful appearance
will return by replacing what Mother

trouble chewing. There is nothing
worse than having to watch what you
order at restaurants for fear that you

friends and loved ones. Your menu
options will open up as you explore
foods again that you had to abandon
because you weren’t able to chew.
