We have a special need for a product that Merk Lab has discontinued called Cushion Grip. They only sold the product at CVS and then complained it didn't sell enough. I used to go and buy up every tube they had. They started selling the 1oz tube for $3.99 when I was buying it then it went up to $7.99 which I thought was pretty expensive but I have to use it everythime I want to eat because my bottom gums are so sensitive. The plastic stays soft while you eat. Fixodent only tries to make the denture stay in place but does nothing for the cushioning. I bought Cushion Grip for $26.00 a tube and could no longer afford it. Right now on Amazon it is selling for $80.00 tube...4 for $255.00. I would say your marketing department should get on the ball and start making a comparable product because their is a need for this product. I have used it for years and my dentist recommended I keep using it because my gums are so sensitive. I have told many people about it and they are happy with the results. PLEASE MAKE THIS PRODUCT or I and many more people will be eating baby food. You should make a fortune and please make bigger tubes than 1oz. Please send this to your marketing dept.

I have been using this product for years and never had that problem. It is not like a reline. It is to be used once a day then soak for a few minutes in warm water and it will come right off. I use it sometimes twice a day so it will continue to be soft. I cannot eat without it.
I also had used cushion grip for years and it was wonderful. I wish I had the means to start a company that would make a similar product as I believe it would help a lot of people.
I had no idea it was discontinued until yesterday because the last time I got some I got three tubes. Now I don't know what to do. Maybe we should talk to the Shark Tank people and get a loan to start our own company.
Says right on the tube it can be used up to 4 days.
I went looking on Merck website and after a small run around, found a number that we NEED to bombard with calls. That is how a company figures out that its product is needed. I am 58 and have had FULL false teeth since I was 25. This product was a godsend for me to get back to eating again. I used everything on the market years past, to hold them. Then I found cushion grip!!! I TOLD EVERYONE about it and even bought the first tube for many. I promise I have sold many thousands of tubes!!! I will CALL that company EVERY WEEK for the next YEAR or more, until they bring it back! If you really want it back, I suggest you and your family and friends do the same. WE are the ones that can get that product back on store shelves soon if we pull together, so I ask you all, how important is it to you? The squeaky wheel gets the grease!!! Their number is 1-800-317-2165 m-f, 8a-5p CST. I and my LARGE family will take this fight to their doorsteps today!! Please join me to get cushion back to us!
It seems like to me since hardly anyone has a lower plate that ALLOWS EATING it's a great way for these companies to make money since MOST new dentures people try 3+ products trying to get one. I finally almost filled my lower with Fixodent and it seems to work if I eat baby size bites of food,I should lose weight cause I get tired of taking so long to eat,I'm alot faster without teeth
PLEASE SOMEBODY MAKE A PRODUCT THAT IS SIMILAR TO CUSHION GRIP!!!! I'm desperate. I can't afford new dentures and this is the only product that works for me. I certainly cannot afford the $300 plus dollars that Amazon is asking. This was a great product and I'm extremely upset that it is off the market.
I too have used cushion grip for years. I needed the cushion and the fit. I have left it in my dentures for months at a time. So you can imagine how long it took to go thru a tube. This past month I needed a new tube. Much to my surprise at
$300 & up. There is another product out there called "prosoft" Works alot like cushion grip. Stays soft. It has a terrible taste to it. Says you can soak it in baking soda for 30 min. NOT ! Doesn't make food taste very good. IT IS NOT CUSHION GRIP !!!! I swore by cushion grip and also told everyone about it. Sure saved my mouth from alot of pain.
I wish they'd bring it back !

Please pick cushion grip back on the market or comparable product. Those of us who wear dentures depend on this product and now we can't find it. Not all of us can afford to go get relines every month or new dentures. I hope this comes back on the market soon ! ! ! !
I too have very sensitive gums and by late afternoon my dentures have to come out. I found my tube of Cushion Grip from when I first got dentures and tried it again and was able to eat a steak. I hadn't been able to do that since I got dentures. Please, Please put it back on the market. A Little advertising would probably get it going really good.
dear god help us LOL
they are price gouging this product and something needs done about this Ebay has it for one tube over 500.00 what the heck! ,, someone has to still be making it because amazon is selling it also but for over 100.00 an ounce.. we need to write to every company to see if they will make a product like this .. someone is getting rich on Ebay ! how are they getting the product .. ( Bayer company bought the rights it and I have emailed them no answer yet !..)
I sent a message on Face book to Bayer .. everyone needs too https://www.facebook.com/healthcare.bayer?fref=nf
I emailed Bayer on Facebook and this is what they said "Hi Charlene, thanks for contacting us. We are in touch with our colleagues and will also forward this link to them. We will get back to you as soon as we receive their feedback. Thank you********************* ( i just emailed to them about the price gouging on amazon and Ebay .. if they are not making the product then how is amazon and Ebay getting it and taking a $6.00 product for one ounce and now asking over $100.00 an ounce ...
Charlene: Thanks for helping us get Bayer's attention about Cushion Grip. I have posted links to Facebook and Twitter and added a phone number(provided by Roxanne) to help us all contact them. Let's all keep at it.
So it isn't that "Amazon and Ebay getting it" from some mysterious manufacturer, it's because the Profiteers are doing what they do to make lots of money. And sadly for those who are forced to buy from them it is terrible. But as far as I know, it's not illegal for a private party to charge whatever they want for a product. In this case they have no competition so they don't need to keep prices down. If someone wants something bad enough they will pay whatever it takes.
Not sure any Attorney General would get involved since it's pretty small potatoes involved. But Ebay does make a profit on higher prices so maybe that would be an issue, but I doubt it since people sell pieces of toast that resemble religious figures on eBay for insane prices too. I think "buyer beware" is the standard rule on eBay and Amazon.

As far as WHY Amazon and Ebay have Cushion Grip is because there are some very savvy sellers on Amazon and Ebay, who buy up products that are being discontinued in order to resell it to others at a massive profit. They are called "Profiteers". The scarcity of the product is often attributed to their buying huge amounts of the product off shelves in stores. They also spend time finding out what products are being discontinued and then buy up a company's leftover stock or go to stores and buy it all off the shelf.So it isn't that "Amazon and Ebay getting it" from some mysterious manufacturer, it's because the Profiteers are doing what they do to make lots of money.

You're probably so right about eBay and Amazon but if we can get the Bayer company get this back that would be a great accomplishment I started a Facebook page trying to reach as many people as I can everybody needs to email them everybody
I have emailed them also. I made a call but couldn't get through. I will try again. Could you please provide us the link to the Facebook page you created? If we can get all the contact info in one place then we can go there instead.
Thanks for you help.
Thanks for you help.
Sure will I'm at the grocery store right now soon as I get home I'll post it
I'm going to try to do it by my phone let me know if it works once we get it there I need a perfect fit glad to put you on as an administrator
That is perfect the website Lol I need to quit using the voice activated device because I hit send way too fast
Hi Charlene:
Got the FB link. Will go there in a few minutes.
Got the FB link. Will go there in a few minutes.
Charlene:
Can you change the name of the FB page to Cushion Grip instead of Grips Cushion?
Can you change the name of the FB page to Cushion Grip instead of Grips Cushion?
Think I can that would be legal right ? Was worried about calling cushion grip but yet that's how everyone will get attention when I get home I'll try to change it Facebook will probably have to approve it or I can just start a whole new wall
Well maybe just keep the "s" on it. Or put the s in parentheses? Since it's not being made anymore, I do wonder what the legality of just using the name would be? It's not like we're trying to sell something with the same name.
And we have been using the name over and over already on here, but best to do what you feel comfortable with. It's just a matter of getting the Cushion Grip people on here to go there, instead.

Amazing how how I'm learning to do all this by phone lol I just change the name to cushion grip dental products I just have to wait for the approval from Facebook and they will automatically update it I do run several other sites on Facebook and I'm going to try to spread the word through those sites also
Charlene: Do you want to email privately instead of on here? We could discuss the CG Facebook page privately?
I can send you my email via the CG Facebook page. I don't want to publish private info on here.

Yes send me a message on Facebook I put a message on the page for Yost he actually even sent you a message but it's in your other folder since were not friends on Facebook yet
Sharon, that was very well written post above! I have been trying to figure out a good way to word the same issue.
There was a time that I was known for how well written my letters were. Unfortunately, since I got sick a few years ago I have had a hard time articulating myself.

Its selling for 400 plus dollars...wth
We're trying to fight it with the petition on Facebookee need to go to the media
Jen, I tried your site and did not get it. Maybe it is not up and running yet. I am interested in your product. How can I get in touch with you .
Has anyone used comfortlining? I looked on the website on Thursday the price was $11.99 per tube then I went on the next day and the price increased to $20.00. I sent a email to comfortlining@gmail.com and it came back...
I have a sample tube but have not used it yet.
I'm not sure why your email bounced back. I just sent an email to the address and didn't have any problems.
As for the price, I just realized that it was drastically increased as well. Perhaps she found that she needed to increase the price due to her cost?!?
Hopefully she will get my email and post about the price.

I would pobably try it if the site had paypal.
it does have paypal
Not on my checkout. Only visa american express master card.
That's weird. I paid with PayPal on the 9th
you have to go through the whole checkout process then it lets you choose between credit card and paypal
i went thru the whole checkout process and it is asking for me to put in my card info only.
have you received it yet and if so how do you like it?
No, I haven't received it yet. I'll post once I do and let everyone know how I like it. I was a huge fan of Comfort Grip, so...
I was sorry to see the price increased from $11 to $20. That is pretty steep price for seniors
I am just thrilled to know you are making a product for us. I hope you make millions.!,
I sent for a sample when she offered to send them out, but never received the sample. I would like to try the different options. I have tried prosoft and secure. They are not bad and I plan to try the product Eric had been telling us about. I feel I need to keep trying everything I can until I find something suitable for me or else my dentures will end up in my night stand for good.
My elderly dad and I used cushion grip for several years. The last one I purchased on eBay wa $12.00 which shocked me because I had been paying $8.00. Now since 2014 they stopped making it and anyone who could get their hand on it are really price gouging. I would pay more but cannot afford $100.00 or more for just one tube. Gee I sure would love to see someone start making it again or something comparable.
2 years ago my husband bought a tube in Vegas at CVS for 8.00. Now amazon is selling it as high as 1000.00!. My sister brought it to my attention because she can't find it anymore so I've been looking. Nothing under 200.00 ridiculous

My mom has been using cushion grip first years she is 82 and her dentures are in bad shape and no hope for new ones, she needs the cushion grip or something compatible
Hello! I have shared your suggestion to create a product similar to Cushion Grip with our product team. I am sorry that it was discontinued, since it was such a helpful product for you. Thank you for writing!
PLEASE bring it back. If you check the denture sites there are thousands of us that use it - just on the forums. The problem was that it was hard to find. The only place I would find it was CVS and then I'd have to wait 2 months before they got any more in. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes please bring it back! When I use cushion grip, I don't have to use any fixodent or polygrip. Now I can't find it anymore and had to go back with fixodent...don't like fixodent. Don't like all that guewy stuff. Please bring back cushion grip!!!!!!!
I also have used Cushion Grip for years and so did my mother. I have bone loss especially the top front. I used it mostly for the cushion. Without it my sinuses suffer greatly and I am afraid of the sinus wall becoming injured :( I am not a good candidate for implants ) My dentist was very impressed when he saw the job this product did. I used to order 6 tubes at a time online and was SHOCKED to see it being sold for $70 to $80 a tube!! Now I am out and don't know what I am going to do :(
Please put it back on the market!
Please put it back on the market!
(Edited)
Please make something like cushion grip back on the market!!! It is the best thing ever!!!! Without cushion grip I would have been in so much pain during my temp stage.
Please bring it back. It is a money maker. You will be surprised how many of us use it
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make a thermoplastic adhesive exactly like Cushion Grip! It is the only product that has worked for me. Without it, my lower denture hurts so bad, I can't keep it in. I belong to a couple of forums for denture wearers and there are THOUSANDS of us who will buy it if you start making it. I will personally help promote it!
Stephanie were you able to get any info on a similar product like cushion grip. It's a good product .when I used it it gave a good cushion and it took away the pain I would have with my dentures. Please talk to who ever you need to talk to so they can make cushion grip. You see all these comments these are the people that will buy this product. If you go on ebay or Amazon those greedy people are selling it anywhere from $60 to $400 dollars. They new people needed it and figured we would pay that. It's ridiculous the price. Please help us.
As for Cushion Grip does anybody know what is was made of and if there any generic products similar? There's always generics out there.... I've notice that anything that works for people always is taken off the market or discontinued because we live in a greedy society.
Stephanie could you ask Christen Wolfe Rd Consumer adviser to please resend her email to me. I received a letter from her saying she sent me an email but I did get it or I deleted it by accident. Email is missdebbie2146@cox.net thank you
If there is a generic please let us know. My family have used this for over 50 yrs. I bought it @ Mays Drug, then Walmart, then Walgreen's, finally Cvs. Now all one by one have stopped selling! We can't afford to buy off Amazon. Please help us. Diann Wingfield, Cushing, Okla. diannwingfield@yahoo.com
Thank you for hearing us--You've got a proven market here!! So please bring back Cushion Grip. It's the only thing that keeps my dentures from falling out. Is there anything else we as consumers can do to make this happen--and quickly. I just scraped up the ends of the last three tubes I had because that's the only way I can wear my dentures.
A few of us on a different denture site were even thinking of trying to manufacture it ourselves--getting funds from the public through kickstarter. Someone else had the good suggestion of going on Shark Tank TV Show to try to get backing to manufacture it again. We don't know what the patent situation and the formula but we're definitely investigating.
BTW, fixodent is the only denture cream I use--unfortunately it doesn't secure my denture in my mouth for more than a few hours--have to reapply later if I eat again!

Updates on status would be nice. We need this product soon!
It's so sad that pretty much everyone who has dentures that make it impossible to eat anything but baby food and baby bites. No wonder NO ONE wants us to get relief,this way you pay and try every adhesive on the shelf or get new dentures or learn what you or can't eat with others then when home take them out so you can taste and eat your food. I hope the reline I get soon will be a miracle and it fits etc.
I have used cushion grip for several yes. And found it to be the best dental adhesive ever
Unlike the others its not runny dose not have an after taste and it stays in all day with out shifting and also last for weeks at a time. I called the 800 331 4536 the rep took my call and all I said about why we need it back on the market
.Hesaid he would email all to cooperate head quarters Thanks for the phone #s We keep on calling we mite get cushion grip back

Wendy, I'm sorry to hear you are having to reapply Fixodent several times a day. We wouldn't expect that and neither should you. Please give us a call so we can get more information, if that's ok with you. Our toll free number is 1-855-236-3353, M-F, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST. Thanks! ~Rosie
What was the response from product team?
Any of the "denture creams" that claim "hold all day " NOT
Cushion Grip is the only product that I found works.
I have tried "denture reline-it by dentists on call" And a couple of other products that have claimed to be like cushion grip... The smell alone is enough to make you sick. They smell like a paint shop that left a bottle of turpentine open.
the taste was even worse.
SO I to am back to having no lowers to enjoy that good steak.
What will it take to get cushion grip back on the market ?
We have been complaining for a long time. I keep seeing that it has been sent to the product team... well................

I agree with you. I am very upset that we can no linger get it unless we pay an arm and leg for it to the crooks on Ebay.
KEEP calling, KEEP calling!!` Do all you can to have our voices heard over and over again!!!
Some people mistakenly think this forum is connected to Bayer but it is NOT. We need to find theirs and bombard it. Please dig deep to find one so we can hit it up.

At the very least, go to www.wonderdrug.com and start emailing them through the Contact us tab.
If everyone emails them and puts Cushion Grip in the subject line, perhaps we can get somewhere.
Mark it on your calendar and email them weekly.

i to have the same problem found out on line go to.make your own thermoplastic,watch how to,make your own bioplastic i was amazed,,,,
I was in the nursing rehab for three Months. I had used the last of the cushion grip I had. It lasted that whole time. Only wore the bottom plate at meal times. Now it is done. Can't use the other products, and can't afford to have the plate relined. Did it once and still needed the cushion grip. Please send a sample.
I went to the comfortlining yesterday, the price was $11.99 a tube, I went back today to order a tube, the price went up to $20.00.. Why??????
Do you know of anyone who has used the product?
I'm looking for a product that works. If you find something please let me know. Thx.
Joan, have you tried Secure?
Can't find secure Alicia. What sore did you find it in. I purchased the product that aquagirl was selling but I feel terrible because I had trouble getting it to work. I am getting desperate.
Hello Joan, here's the You tube video link, for directions. https://youtu.be/EaLespIJT_0
Hi Joan,
I purchased some from www.amazon.com but I got my first tube from http://www.securedenture.com/
Check both places for prices. It is sometimes cheaper on Amazon but they run sales on their site sometimes as well.
If you Google (or are looking on Amazon) just type in Secure Denture Adhesive. You will see that it claims that it is sold at Walmart, CVS, as well as other stores unfortunately the Walmart in my area doesn't carry it and I don't think there are any CVS stores any where near where I live.
Just so you know, I haven't run our of my first tube yet, I just ordered a tube of the sensitive. I am a big fan of the strips for my lowers as I have a small mouth and I like their cleaning tabs - you only need half a tab and it lifts the stuff right off.
Just remember to NOT rinse any gobs down the drain. It isn't water soluble so it may cause clogs.
You may discover that you won't need it at all once you get more accustomed to Jenn's product. I'm using the Secure right now because they REALLY screwed up my dentures when they did the hard reline. The dentist took them around and was showing everone. She said she had never seen that happen. I guess the mold shifted or got twisted before they were cured. That was the Thursday before Christmas, the office was then closed for 2 weeks and I had surgery on the 6th. Lucky me, when I went in on the 5th it just so happened that the lab tech that screwed up my teeth and another lab tech were either terminated or quit. Either way, until this coming Wednesday I have no choice but to "Super Glue" (aka Secure ) my teeth in as best as I can.
Good luck and make sure you watch YouTube videos about how to apply Secure!

I have used it for years and I wish someone would make again . My gums are still tender after 45 years. I have not fd nothing that works for me. every time I stopped by CVS I got every every tube they had. I can not eat anything but soup now. We older folks need this stuff
Linda, I found a product called correct cushion. I used it just once and believe me I's better than cushion. It's been in my bottom dentures for days now and I love it. It is made out of the U.S. and made by a company with many years in the market. If your interested let me know.
FOUND SOMETHING. CORRECT CUSHION EZ. BUY IT THROUGH ERIC. $18 A TUBE,INCLUDES SHIPPING.
I'm writing for my Dad...please consider making Cushion Grip again? It was an amazing product for denture wearers and sine it selling online for $128+ clearly there is a market for it! You could make a profit for sure
I wish they would make it again too as my gums get extremely sore and this always let them heal. I was really upset when I could no longer buy it. It is selling on Amazon and Ebay from $100 to $500 a tube. Ridiculous.
Says on the box that it can be left on up to 4 days. Nothing about taking it out daily.
I was able to leave mine is sometimes for a couple of months. It definitely made my dentures fit so secure and no pain. It was definitely a bear to get out. But careful soaking in hot water and a bit of tugging and pulling it would come out.
When I used cushion grip it stayed in for a few months also.. I really relied on it. I wish they would make it again. My bottom dentures are hurting so bad. I cut up sea bond and use here and there, wherever I'm hurting. But its not like using cushion grip..
I totally agree! There is a petition on FB to sign to try and get them to bring it back
I have been using EZO, since cushion grip is not available. I did not get enough cushion using sea bond. Ezo seems to last much longer.
Patti, please stay with it and hopefully they will get it back again. I am a nervous wreck worrying about how I am going to be able to eat. Those people selling it for those big amounts should be ashamed of themselves. Someday they may be in our shoes.
I need the cushion because of sensitive gums seabird hurts my gums.adhesives don't cushion enough
Denise, when did you get your dentures? Did you let your dentist know what is going on with your bottom dentures? It may be that you need an adjustment. You shouldn't be experiencing this much pain. Thanks.
Patti have you found anything yet? Please keep in touch.
What Ever you do don't buy that stuff from Japan please research it there are chemicals in that the product that's why it's not here in United States
No not true !!
just get a hold of FDA I did
And it is stated take at your own risk! End of story
And it is stated take at your own risk! End of story
And I have STILL not received a single answer to any of MY questions ERIC! !!!!!!
He's never going to be able to answer those questions everyone just needs to ignore that product and him
Eric Eric lol God Justin just told me he put you on earth for our entertainment so keep it up
Don't know what we do without you
Don't know what we do without you
Charlene, you are absolutely right!
Such deplorable behavior towards my friends will no longer be acknowledged.
If he takes the hint then he will go away. If he doesn't, then he can continue talking and having it land on deaf ears!

I know but he's more like a bully
Thanks for putting that out there . You proved my point ! Born to entertain us !!
Eric. You need to be mindful of who you are condescending to. Just because you can quote in Latin doesn't make you intelligent.
Look, I can quote shit too. Google is your friend.

- Ok people. STOP! This petty garbage that is coming across here has got to end. This forum is to inform and help each other, NOT what is going on now! Community powered support for DentureLiving!!!!! Nowhere does it say that we are to pick on others because we don't like what they say, we ALL have the right to pass by or drop what we don't believe is correct! Just because you are friends with someone does not make it right to talk bad about anything anyone else says. It is about INFOMATION ONLY!!!
-
HOW DO YOU THINK THIS PETTY BACKBITTING IS HELPING ANYONE? ALL it is doing is chasing away others that just find us AND who may have great info that would help most of us. THIS is NOT about who got their feeling hurt from something someone said!!!! THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR THIS KIND OF CRAP!!!!!! If you are unhappy here, PLEASE leave so the rest of us can get help that we came here for. Grow up!!!!
If you jump on me for this post, it just shows what I am talking about! Last time I looked, this IS on the NET for anyone to become a member, American or NOT!!
STOP!
(Edited)
Diana, if you are referring to anything that I've said, please take a moment to read just exactly what my posts have been. I asked Eric legit questions on numerous threads. Every single one has been met by a snarky comment and insults towards the one person that was trying to help us, who is in fact my friend that I met on here.
Has it gotten out of hand? Absolutely! Which is why you will find that I have stated I will no longer acknowledge any posts from him.
I am a grown woman with the right to freedom of speech and yet I simply repeated questions that continue to go unanswered. My comment about opinions and butt holes? A result of a very tiresome fight for information.
Moving on now.....

Me too well said !
I"m very sorry to see what this Forum has become. The back biting and name calling, etc has gotten childish and typical of the degradation of so many Forums. Free speech also comes with responsibilities of civility and I am seeing that falling apart on here. This was intended to be a resource for information regarding dentures and not a soap box for patriotism and racism. I will no longer participate with this group as I don't have time reading the petty name calling and bigotry.
Thank you to Jenn, Charlene, Eric and others who have offered and discussed positive solutions for the many questions and complaints on here and I wish them success with the products they are making and have found, so far.
Best regards
Sharon

You know what Sharon, you stay and I'll go.
Thank you to all who have helped me and I am happy to have helped some of you!
If there are so many people that would rather sit back and watch while others attempt to bully away the true, honest people that actually DO answer questions instead of trying to baffle with BS, like 'ERIC' does then this is not where I want to be!
I've enjoyed making new friends and plan to keep in touch with them.

And Sharon, if you are calling me racist, a bigot and anything other than a CIVIL PATRIOTIC WOMAN. maybe you should know something /ANYTHING about me before you make these statements!
Why don't you re-read my posts and then email me what I have said that allows you to judge me!
I'm not done going through my emails yet, so Iay not be done. But when they are gone, don't worry, I will be too! I will be looking for your email though, letting me know just exactly how I'm a racist!

Alicia P.:No one, including me, is calling YOU a racist. I am just sick of reading this ongoing battle with Eric. The taunting and snark and, for whatever reason, acts of singling him out and disparaging his attempt at mentioning a product made in Japan is just shear cyber bullying. His response has become defensive in return.
Other people have mentioned other products on here, without a similar response, and I am curious why that is.
Alicia, if you are offended by my comment then I am sorry for that and hope you will accept my apology, as nothing I said was intentionally directed toward you, personally.
Best regards and good luck to you and everyone on here, in your search for pain free dentures.

Sharon, the ONLY ongoing battle that I have had with Eric was to get simple answers to simple questions 1. How much does it cost? 2. What if I run out, can I legally obtain more? 3. Is it safe? 4. What recourse would I have if I had a serious reaction to it? (assuming my er Dr didn't read Japanese )
I have asked these questions til I was blue in the face and STILL DO NOT HAVE THE ANSWERS.
When he began attacking my friend, nagging her for information that would not affect his health, that's when I started taking offense, and yet I continued to bite my tongue and ask the same questions. It was when I posted that I would be ignoring him, the way he seemed to be treating me, that it hit the fan. My post about butt holes and opinions is no different than him posting his little Latin phrases. However, while I agreed with his Latin phrase, my statement was net with a link to a bidet. I kept my cool and took the high road.
Anyone is welcome to email me.

My grandson was climbing all over me when I typed the post in directly below your post, so I needed to hit send. But felt it important enough to not only acknowledge but also accept your apologies.
I do hope that you keep in touch.

As I have learned with Facebook, if you don't like the comment or disagree--just scroll. Personally, I want to hear about all new products and experiences with them. I really appreciate this site and thank fixodent for letting us use their forum. I also want to thank all of you for your useful information about dentures. Dentures at best for me are an unpleasant fact of life.
I agree! The reason people are is the figure out their options! I have ordered the new Comfort Living & it's not for me- end of story! I have takin Eric up on the product he found! I got goose bumps when I opened up the product- it looks & feels the same as Cushion Grip!!! I haven't used it yet- just got it today & will be trying it in morning! I was to the point of ordering food safe silicone molding putty/material!! I did ordered 2 silicone materials, haven't received them yet. I thought what the hell I'll bite- it's only $18 for the Japanese denture adhesive product & what do I have to lose? I'm pretty sure I'll die of something else lol I'll keep you posted on what I think of the product!

Retha- Just email Eric and he will set you up!
I have applied it to my lower denture; it's just like CG! But this doesn't have that little tingle when 1st applied, & has just of a light scent/taste of bubblegum. It has set up faster than CG did, after 1 hour or so & doesn't smash out & over run denture side which is really nice. Now I will see how many days I can leave it in the denture with normal overnight soaking & cleaning! So far so good with this product!
Hello, where and how can you buy this product. How do you identify what you are buying. Does it have any english to the listing? Thank you
Cushion Correct EZ 30g has lasted me about 4-5days(there was a day in there I didn't wear my dentures-lazy day at home!). I have noticed that when I soak them in fizzy tab at night, little bubbles form in the cushion. I just pop them & carry on w/ my day! just weird- doesn't affect it any tho! your computer will translate the website- you may have to find the translate button- but it's there!! I have ordered 6 tubes of Cushion Correct EZ 30g through the website- http://item.rakuten.co.jp/shopsoleil/1084074/. I also ordered 1 tube of a different kind that look the same, but different lable(http://item.rakuten.co.jp/shopsoleil/10091709/) I'll see if these are the same & let ever1 know. The store I worked with is so great & basically walks you right through the process! I didn't use paypal, I just went with the credit card through the store! Visa does have 0 liability so your not responsible for charges you don't make!! All together it costed 8877yen which is $74.72us & breaks down to $10.67 for 7 tubes. But my card statement is showing $62.41us($8.92/tube) so I will have to see the invoice in the box!

I went looking on Merck website and after a small run around, found a number that we NEED to bombard with calls. That is how a company figures out that its product is needed. I am 58 and have had FULL false teeth since I was 25. This product was a godsend for me to get back to eating again. I used everything on the market years past, to hold them. Then I found cushion grip!!! I TOLD EVERYONE about it and even bought the first tube for many. I promise I have sold many thousands of tubes!!! I will CALL that company EVERY WEEK for the next YEAR or more, until they bring it back! If you really want it back, I suggest you and your family and friends do the same. WE are the ones that can get that product back on store shelves soon if we pull together, so I ask you all, how important is it to you? The squeaky wheel gets the grease!!! Their number is 1-800-317-2165 m-f, 8a-5p CST. I and my LARGE family will take this fight to their doorsteps today!! Please join me to get cushion back to us!

For example, Crayola crayons are non toxic, but they probably shouldn't be consumed.
Just my 2 cents worth, bit I would like to see FDA APPROVED on it

If you don't want to buy it, don't. But these dispariging remarks about her an what she is doing are unnecessary!
Instead of constantly complaining, she is doing something to try to help.
She has been sending out samples FREE OF CHARGE and is including free shipping all over the world. The increase in price is to help offset those costs. Twenty dollars a tube is FAR from the over inflated prices you are seeing on Amazon and eBay!
Thank you Jenn for your continued efforts to help out with a much needed prodict! Especially when you are being met by so many negative responses.
If everyone would just read this entire thread and took note on the support that others received when they mention trying to produce a similar produvt, they might humble themselves enough to thank you as well!
P.s. another reason hee price is higher is that she doesn't have a corporation back her up.

I'm going to find the thread that someone else was stating that she was going to attempt to make a similar product and see if any of the people that are complaining about Jenn's product were supporting the other woman. I'm curious if there are any hypocrites on here.
Have any of you bothered to get to know Jenn? I have. I won't think twice of trying this product. Heck, I wouldn't think twice of going to her house for dinner!
I guess it's easier to complain about not having a product than it is to try something different.
Sharon
Every single post on here has been someone begging for a replacement to CG. Jenna has done what no one else has and is trying to get a product similar like CG out to those of us who want it. Her price is not outrageous or out of line with what we should expect. I am certainly willing to pay that price.
I mentioned that her website (at the time I went there) wasn't secure enough for CC payments. She kindly responded to me that she is/was working on getting her site to be secure with SSL and did have Paypal.
I didn't request a free sample, so am depending on those who have to give us the skinny on whether it works :). If all testing turns out ok I will definitely be ordering Jenn's new product.
Jenna needs our support and thanks, NOT negative criticism.
AliciaP
And to squash any theories that I know Jenn from somewhere other than this site - I do NOT. I just click with certain people and we become friends!
Charlene Moore Settles Mathes
Goal is there is to have one of the universities to analyze what is in the Product & to make sure it is completely safe for all of us to use this could be a great great thing to put those gouging Companies on eBay and Amazon in their place charging hundreds of dollar!
Even at $20-$25 this place that is now selling comfort line will make money I'm good with those prices of the longest everything in the ingredients is not harmful that is the only question now many universities welcome these Chyna chances for their students to investigate
AliciaP
Have you personally emailed Jemn and asked her directly?
I really am trying to be helpful!
Charlene Moore Settles Mathes
She definitely will be a godsend if this all works out for us !! I am all for stopping those gouging prices
I have been emailing the Bayer company four months now we have over 200 people signing that petition I just sent that to them again today I wish this gal all the luck in the world we do need her I just need to know I'll be ingredients it says on the website it's natural ingredients
I was just telling someone on the Facebook site that I was watching QVC and I fell for that hair product and ordered $40 worth of it then I'll be darned if soon as I ordered it I tried to cancel it because on NBC last night they're talking about the lawsuit that is making people bald stuff like this is what makes a skeptical
AliciaP
I completely understand when it comes to allergies!
I hope everything works out for you!
Charlene Moore Settles Mathes
Only concern is that the product is safe I will find out trust me
AliciaP
Prior to disability I also spent ten years working in health and life insurance. I understand having people only happy if they are ticked off. But I also know that when you are trying to do a good thing and constantly met with adversity eventually you may be tempted to give up.
I do NOT want Jenn to give up because people are making life so hard for her!

When I first received my tube I took a bit of it and placed over a bone that is growing in the wrong direction just to see if it would cause any allergic reactions and it didn't. I had never used Cushion Grip though, so can't compare it.
I'm just learning and trying different things as I go.

Like with adhesives, I'm not allergic to latex and medical tape (including Band-Aids) as long as the are on me. However, when it's removed I get a welt as big as can be. It can even be non-allergenic. I'm allergic to fish oil, but not fish or Omega. I'm deathly allergic to Omnicef, but nor other antibiotics in the same class.

I Googled the product that Eric posted about. It IS a legitimate product made by a major Pharmaceutical company in Japan.
http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/zagzag/item/g4987087041392/?s-id=borderless_browsehist_en
The translation is a bit messy but it gets the point across.
It costs $10(USD) for a 1 oz tube, just like Cushion Grip charged. I also checked the ingredients and they are rated a 3 (1 being acceptable through 10 as highly toxic) by the Environmental Working Group's gauge of toxic ingredients and approved by the US FDA as acceptable as a food additive. I trust EWG far more than our own FDA on most anything right now, but Canada just upped Polyvinyl Acetate on their toxicity list so they apparently have found out something adverse that we don't know or won't admit to yet.
The ingredients are not why this product isn't allowed to be sold in the US. It's mainly an import/export issue, since foreign Pharmaceuticals are pretty much banned in the US, due to our strict and highly enforced trade laws on drugs. Of course, we don't really see this as a "pharmaceutical product" but we sell a lot of things over the counter here in the US, that other countries are far more strict about.
So for those interested,(unless he has already) I highly doubt Eric can send any of that product to us. Mostly because it has to go through US Customs/DEA and I don't know if they would allow that. You do have to declare what you are shipping and they do open and inspect packages and will confiscate anything questionable.
As far as people fearing the ingredients of the Japanese version, does anyone KNOW what Cushion Grip was made from? CG says "a" Thermodynamic Plastic, but that doesn't really tell all the ingredients since plain Thermodynamic Plastic does not work the same as Cushion Grip. The ingredients are NOT listed anywhere on the tube,box or instructions. Googling for the ingredients does not come up with an acceptable answer,either. So what's to say Cushion Grip isn't/wasn't made out of the same material as the Japanese product?
We just assume ours is "safe" because we put a lot of trust in our government to not allow someone to sell us something harmful, which isn't always the case, considering all the recalls after something has been approved by the FDA.
Maybe Cushion Grip was really discontinued because of the ingredients.
So hopefully for us, Jenn's version will be SAFE and pass all the tests needed to be able to sell it publicly.

(no I do not know Jen) I just believe in her
EVERYONE has been begging to have something like CG back on the market. At least Jen is doing something about it.
I would gladly put her product in my mouth and try it. A previous post also stated that CG doesn't have a list of there ingredients anywhere in there packaging. Yet we buy & use sight unseen.... I have used it for 10 yrs now.
So what if Jen's is in a white tube?? Maybe she is just trying to get it out on the market first before she starts deciding on a label design.
I wouldn't waste time on the design right now either. Need people to use
It. I'm up for clinical trials for lack of a better word. After using the "MADE IN THE USA" home reline kits. Send me some of Jens product. Since "CG" has been taken off the market. I can only eat soft foods now. Can't even eat corn on the cob... Didn't have that problem with CG. And I'm hoping Jen's product will work the same!!
I will be in heaven again and put back a few pounds that I've lost because I can't eat like I did. I can't afford to loose anymore either. 58 & 110lb isn't good.
.. Japan & China have been shipping things to the US forever. Look how many toys that they have recalled because there "lead" is contaminating our children.... Dog food that is killing our dogs. ETC!!!!!!!!!The list goes on...
My POINT.
"Prosoft" denture reline kits.... I tried. The chemical taste and smell is so strong you can't even enjoy a cracker it is so overwhelming. SO I decided to look for the ingredients on the box
" METHACRYLATE" IS one of the major ingredients.
I haven't seen anyone complaining about them.??? "FDA APPROVED"
You need to look up the "Material Safety Data Sheet" (msds for short)
Methyl methacrylate MSDS http://avogadro.chem.iastate.edu/msds/methyl_methacrylate.htm
Methyl methacrylate MSDS http://www.sciencelab.com/msds.php?msdsId=9927360s
Yet NO ONE HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT THESE. OH YAH MADE IT THE USA SO THERE SAFE????????????????????????????????????//
NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had no problem at all with my tube. Everything worked exactly the same as Cushion Grip.
maybe your tube was defective?
I actually like Comfort lining better, it dries quicker and its very firm, but yet soft.

Thank you for posting that I have sent is much information and invited a reporter from the Chicago Tribune onto this site because somehow that Japanese product is being black market it into the United States cannot order it yourself online so this so called Guy is trying to sell it through his email it must be on the black market here I just wanted someone to get on here and figure out if that email address he put out here will lead them to the person trying to sell this in the US illegallyI have no desire to become a part of the Japanese/ Cushion Correction vs Comfort Lining battle. I believe everyone has a right to their opinion and not be attacked for their views. We should be able to share factual information. I'm on neither side, which there shouldn't be sides, I know no one here. Cushion Correction is NOT being black marketed into the US. I ordered it direct from the company in Japan. It went through customs both exiting Japan and then in New York when it entered the US and then delivered right to my door. People need to ask questions, kindly, when they don't know the answer. This would be much better then just making things up. Sorry, if this upsets some and I refuse to engage in a battle here. I believe our FDA and government have allowed many manufacturers to harm all of us health wise.

We must all call Merck at 1-800-444-2080 !!!! Flood them with calls
Merck bought Bayer who made Cushion grip. Merck has the formula.
Call Merck at 1-800-444-2080 - Tell them how ebay and Amazon are peddling Cushion Grip at almost $600.00 per tube.
**** United we stand, divided we fall.*****

Okay Cushion Grip fans, let's get it back now > Action speaks louder than words!!!
This was Bayer HealthCare's response about bringing back Cushion Grip Thermoplastic Denture Adhesive. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!.
Apologies for the ones who had issues with some of the tubes, new replacements will be shipped out
to those who had issues.
In reference to the Japense product and Tim Ruhl or Eric whoever his name is, who has been slandering Comfort Lining for his own demeanor.
Our company has nothing to do with him or his sinister nature.
Our goal is to satisfy everyone and those who are not satisfied, please send us a email to
Comfortlining@gmail.com
Our business is new and with every business there are kinks to be worked out.
We have fixed issues with the tubes and formula is at its best.
Our company will be better than cushion grip ever was.
Prices will also be dropping back down, IT is working on this now.
We are here to make our denture adhesive the best and we will succeed!
Comfort Lining Thermoplastic Denture Adhesive!
