Introduction: Patients with acrylic complete denture, usually have a confidence issue in using their complete dentures to chew and speak, because of concern about detached of the denture from its place and pain on the alveolar ridge. Application denture adhesive material ordinarily can solve the problem. Mostly, denture adhesives in the market are made from synthetic material poly(methyl-vinyl-ether) but nowadays aloe vera extract is believed to be a substitute to synthetic denture adhesive material. The purpose of this study was to compare the retentive ability of the prothesis which applied incisal bite forces among the complete denture applied by denture adhesive poly(methyl-vinyl-ether), aloe vera extract and and without denture adhesive as control. Methods: This true-experimental research used 10 samples from patients who used acrylic complete denture and meet suitable criteria. Samples were tested in three different interventions, the first one applied by denture adhesive made from poly(methyl-vinyl-ether), the second one applied by denture adhesive made from aloe vera extract and the third one as a control group, sample was tested without any application of denture adhesive. Retentive ability on incisal bite forces was measured by modified pressure transducer with integrated software. Data was analysis using ANOVA method. Results: Anterior bite force as control 20,98 N, aloe vera 23,42 N, poly (methyl-vinyl-ether) 21,25 N and without denture adhesive as control.  Significant differences in the incisal bite force dislodgement of dentures that were applied with Aloe vera-based denture adhesive s with p-value of 0.0088. Conclusion: Denture adhesive made from Aloe vera extract had the highest adhesiveness incisal bite force value compared to denture adhesive made from poly(methyl-vinyl-ether) and without denture adhesive.

Background:Denture adhesives are often a matter of controversy. Patients seem to easily accept the use of denture adhesives, while professionals are more hesitant.Objective:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the self-perception, bite force and masticatory efficiency of complete denture wearers with denture adhesives.Methods:Fifteen complete denture wearers had their bite force measured by a gnathodynamometer in the molar region. Subjects also masticated 12 tablets of a chewable artificial test material for 35 masticatory cycles. The test material was washed, dried, sieved and weighed. Both tests were taken with and without the denture adhesive (Corega Ultra). The questionnaire Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) was applied to evaluate self-perception with dentures.Results and Conclusion:Masticatory efficiency and bite force for the control group (without denture adhesive) and for the group with denture adhesive presented no statistically significant differences (p= 0.2080 andp= 0.2489, respectively). Self-perception according to the GOHAI index was great for 13% of participants, 40% considered it regular and 47% evaluated it as bad. Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that the use of denture adhesive did not promote an improvement in bite force and masticatory efficiency. According to the GOHAI index, self-perception of the participants was classified as bad.

The thermal stability and decomposition of in-situ crosslinked nanocellulose whiskers – poly(methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic acid) – polyethylene glycol formulations (PMVEMA-PEG), (25%, 50%, and 75% whiskers) – were investigated using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) methods. The thermal degradation behavior of the films varied according to the percent cellulose whiskers in each formulation. The presence of cellulose whiskers increased the thermal stability of the PMVEMA-PEG matrix.
