Question for a specialist
No matter how high the quality of the material and production of removable dental structures, without careful care they quickly wear out and require replacement. Protefix (“Protefix”) are tablets that are specially created by the company of the same name to extend the life of dentures. Thanks to their special formula, removable products will retain their original shape and appearance longer.

Arsenal of Protefix products

The Protefix company produces not only tablets for cleaning dentures. There are other forms of drugs in the arsenal that help to use the product. So, for example, if the removable structure is not held firmly in the mouth, then a powder preparation is used. If the fixation of the prosthesis leaves much to be desired, cream is used. Gaskets are designed to help a person get used to the installed product.

Attention! Each of the products is prescribed by the attending physician after examination and mandatory correction of the removable structure, especially for gaskets - they cannot be used without an orthopedist, because they can cause problems with the positioning of the prosthesis.

Fixing cream "Protefix"

A German-made product with a dense consistency and easy application. It has a number of important advantages:

• ease of application due to high viscosity;
• absence of harmful chemical components, dyes and fragrances in the composition;
• does not change the taste of food and drinks;
• economical use of funds;
• guaranteed stable fixation for 12 hours;
• immunity to salivation;
• fast adhesion time - it only takes 5 minutes to secure the prosthesis in the mouth;
• antiseptic effect.

The drug has almost no contraindications and can be used for both permanent removable systems and temporary ones.

Release form and packaging of the drug

Active removable teeth cleaner Protefix are white tablets that are quite large in size and have a menthol smell. Available in large cardboard packages. One package can contain 32 or 66 pieces. This amount is associated with a large consumption of funds. “Protefix” for cleaning removable teeth has increased hygroscopicity, so the tablets are packaged in foil blisters at a distance from each other.

Packing and storage

Experts recommend using the drug at least twice a day: in the morning before breakfast and in the evening after dinner. Due to its significant consumption, it is produced in large packages - 32 or 66 tablets. To prevent them from getting damp and sticking together, they are placed in foil blisters.

The shelf life of the drug is 3 years. The tablets smell nice and can be easily taken out of the package, so keep the product out of the reach of children. The drug cannot be removed from the blister for a long time, as its cleaning components quickly react with air. After this, the pills foam poorly and lose their beneficial properties.

When the expiration date expires, the drug should not be used. The tablets do not become toxic, but no longer effectively clean the dental structure.

Protefix cleansers belong to the middle price category. They cannot be called too expensive, although you can buy cheaper drugs. In the Russian pharmacy chain, the price of a package containing 32 tablets averages 140-180 rubles. A box of 66 pills will cost the consumer from 290 to 320 rubles. The exact cost of the product depends on the region of sale and the pricing policy of the pharmacy.

Often, medicines and hygiene products are much cheaper if you buy them through online resources. Many pharmacies that sell online have pick-up points in various cities, which allows you to save on your purchase.

The production and installation of removable dentures takes a lot of time, the cost of the structures is high, and only proper care can extend their service life. Protefix cleansers prevent the appearance of bad breath, microbial plaque on plastic surfaces or gums, as well as the occurrence of various diseases of the mucous membrane that appear due to poor hygiene. In order not to harm your health and prosthesis, you must strictly follow the instructions for use of Protefix.

Features of the cleaning composition

The drug has a unique formula that allows you to clean the surface of removable dental structures from hard and soft plaque. Moreover, the high oxygen content in the Protefix preparation even removes coloring matter from it, for example, from coffee or cigarettes.

Among the components of the product are: bicarbonate, sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium perborate, potassium carbonate, citric acid. The drug also contains small quantities of aromatic (menthol) and coloring (indigo) ingredients and mint oils. Therefore, its regular use allows you to keep dentures in their original form for a long period of time and maintain fresh breath.

Features of cleansing tablets

Acrylic dentures seem durable and invulnerable. But this impression is deceptive. Artificial teeth do not have nerves, so they do not hurt like natural teeth. But if you don’t care for them properly, they will quickly deteriorate and last only a short time.

Available in two packages: 32 and 66 pieces

Protefix tablets are a highly effective cleaner designed to remove plaque from dentures. Regular toothbrushes and toothpastes, which do not penetrate hard-to-reach places, cannot cope with this task. A plaque remains there, gradually turning into stone. It is possible to keep the structure perfectly clean only thanks to special cleaning agents. Protefix tablets for dentures have the following effect on artificial teeth:

• Remains of food, plaque and stone are efficiently removed from the surface;
• They have a disinfecting effect, destroy microbes and prevent their reproduction;
• Whiten artificial teeth that have become darkened due to smoking or eating food with a large amount of natural or artificial dyes;
• Eliminate unpleasant odors and provide fresh breath;
• Active oxygen in the composition of the drug reliably and carefully cleans the structure, preventing its mechanical damage.

Protefix tablets are used to prepare cleaning solutions. They should be diluted in water, but should not be dissolved or swallowed, as the chemicals they contain cause burns to the mucous membrane.

The tablets can be used only if the mucous membrane is healthy and there is no damage to it. Externally, they are quite large white pills with a menthol aroma. They contain the following substances:

• Active oxygen;
• Sodium luryl sulfate;
• Sodium perborate;
• Bicarbonate of soda;
• Potassium caroate;
• Lemon acid;
• Indigo carmine;
• Flavors.

How effective is the drug?

The effectiveness of using Protefix denture cleaning tablets has been confirmed not only by numerous clinical data, but also by user reviews. Other features of the drug include the following:

• in the process of dissolving the product in water, a rapid release of active oxygen occurs, which leads to the cleaning of the most difficult areas of the structure,
• due to the fact that bacteria accumulate in places inaccessible for regular cleaning, after using the tablets, the structure is cleaned more efficiently, which significantly reduces the risk of the formation of new deposits and gum inflammation,
• the same absence of bacteria leads to the elimination of bad breath, and the feeling of freshness lasts up to 12 hours,
• the product effectively removes even stubborn dyes from removable teeth, so after its use the smile remains snow-white,
• since the drug does not affect the surface of the structure mechanically, the likelihood of its damage is reduced to zero,
• to carry out the procedure you do not need to have any special skills, it is simple and takes no more than a quarter of an hour,
• The presence of mint and menthol oils in the preparation does not affect the taste characteristics of food, but can cause allergic reactions.

• Dip the prosthesis into the solution and keep it in it for 10-15 minutes;
• Remove and wash in plenty of running water.

There are nuances that allow you to achieve better cleansing. When the tablet is placed in water, it begins to foam, so the product dissolves quickly. The prosthesis should be immersed in the liquid at the moment of dissolution so that bubbles of active oxygen have time to settle on it. After the set time, the product is removed from the solution and washed thoroughly under the tap. After this, the prosthesis acquires a pleasant menthol aroma.

The manufacturer notes that the product is completely safe for the human body. There are no side effects when using it. But for some people, the components in the tablet may cause allergies. The following symptoms appear:

1. Rash on the mucous membrane in places that come into contact with the cleaned prosthesis. Sometimes it may appear on the skin.
2. Irritation and itching.
3. In especially severe cases, life-threatening conditions can develop - Quincke's edema and anaphylactic shock.

Features of application

To properly clean a removable denture with Protefix tablets, you must adhere to some rules:

• Cleaning of the product should be done outside the oral cavity, in a glass specially designated for this procedure,
• It is necessary to lower the product into the solution immediately after placing the tablet, since it is at the moment of its dissolution that an active release of oxygen occurs,
• It is not recommended to keep the structure in the solution for longer than the time specified in the instructions, since the active components of the mixture can contribute to the appearance of microdamages on the plastic,
• The tablet must be used immediately after opening the blister, since storing it outside of a sealed package can trigger a number of chemical reactions with air and loss of cleaning properties.

In addition, if the drug has expired, it is better to dispose of it. Although it does not accumulate toxic compounds, the quality of cleaning is significantly reduced.

Cleaning technology and frequency

It is advisable to clean the prosthetic structure after each meal. If this does not work, you need to do this at least twice a day. Clean in the morning after breakfast and in the evening before bed.

• remove the prosthesis and moisten it with running water;
• Apply a little soft paste to the toothbrush and sequentially treat the artificial gums, base, retainers and teeth;
• do not use too much pressure so as not to damage the structure;
• pay special attention to areas that come into contact with the gums;
• After cleaning, rinse the denture with running water.

The hygiene procedure should last at least two to three minutes.

• irritation of the oral mucosa at the junction of the structure,
• itching of the mucous membrane,
• rashes of various types on both the mucous membrane and the skin.
