Texas Denture Cream Zinc Poisoning Injury Attorney
More than 35 million Americans use dentures. Dentures are held in place by adhesive creams like Poligrip and Fixodent. Most of the adhesive products contain zinc. If too much zinc is absorbed into the blood stream, people will begin to feel the debilitating effects of zinc poisoning.

People who use denture cream products are at risk of developing zinc poisoning. Zinc poisoning can cause a multitude of problems, including:
- Paralysis
- Numbness in extremities
- Tingling or pain in the hands and feet
- Muscle weakness or pain
- Loss of balance or difficulty walking
- Loss of sensation
- Neuropathy
- Confusion or difficulty concentrating
If you have suffered from any of the above symptoms following the use of denture creams, you might have developed zinc poisoning. We encourage you to stop using the product, contact your doctor, and call our firm to discuss a personal injury lawsuit.
Dangers of Zinc Poisoning Misdiagnosis
Many doctors are not aware of the relationship between zinc poisoning and denture creams. The symptoms of zinc poisoning can be attributed to other diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, dementia, Parkinson's or many other neurological disorders.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with one of the above diseases, alert the doctor that you have been using denture cream. Your doctor should be able to run blood tests and reach a proper diagnosis.
