Denture adhesive is made by several well known manufactures like Proctor & Gamble and Glaxo Smith Kline, that have done research and testing, I have been told that some of the ingredients are similar to Chewing Gum. For more accurate information, I would suggest you find the name of the manufacturer of the product and contact them for more information. I would assume they would give you accurate details about their specific products (i.e. Fixodent, Polygrip, and Wernets Powder).
Many people make their own homemade denture adhesive since commercially made ones are very expensive. To make your own, melt about 1/3 cup of bubble gum and microwave it for a minute. Mix well and add in 1/4 cup confectioners sugar. Turn out onto wax paper and knead well.
What you really need is a denture liner to fill out the imperfections in the denture. So try this, it may work for you. Work up a wad of bubble gum, or have some one you trust to do it for you. Put it between to pieces of plastic or wax paper and roll it out to a very thin layer.
Trim the layer of bubble gum to the rough shape of the denture and put it in it and put it in your mouth and press it good against the jaw.
That's temporary of course but if it works good for you, you may be able to let it dry for a few days so that the bubble gum hardens and becomes part of the denture. I haven't tried letting it harden so I don't know.

Are you allowed to bring denture adhesive cream on an airplane?
Denture adhesive does not come in cream form. It comes in paste, wafer, or powder forms. Theoretically, you may bring 3 ounces or less of denture adhesive paste in a clearly labeled container on a plane, but the reality is that it depends on the rules of the airline, and the judgment of the person inspecting your bags.

If you have a new dental plate when do you have to start using dental grip?
If it is a denture that was made the same day the teeth were extracted, after about 6 weeks, you should have the denture relined. People usually don't want to walk around with out teeth while the bone and tissue heals. So an immediate denture is made. After the swelling goes away the tissue may shrink causing the denture to be sort of loose. This is when it is time to have it relined. Dental adhesive, in my opinion, should be a last resort. If it is a partial instead of a full denture, the person who made it should be able to adust it so the claps hold it in place without having to use adhesive.
