Benefits of technology

[0011]An object of the present invention is to formulate a fixing cream composition which has good adhesive strength and is stable in the long term. Furthermore, the fixing cream composition is intended to be based on predominantly natural and physiologically harmless base products. In particular, there is intended to be found a formulation which is also free from mineral oils and free from zinc-containing compounds or which may have good fixing cream properties with a low content of mineral oil and / or zinc. Another object is to produce a fixing cream which is improved in physiological terms and which is at least equivalent in terms of its stability properties and adhesion properties, in particular with regard to the adhesion duration and the adhesion strength, in comparison with commercial creams. Furthermore, a fixing cream which produces a pleasant sensation in the mouth is sought.

Problems solved by technology

Consequently, negative effects in adults cannot be excluded.
However, there is uncertainty as to whether the paraffins can penetrate the skin.
In the case of use in fixing creams, however, there is an increased probability that paraffinic components will be absorbed directly by the body via the digestion.
According to U.S. Pat. No. 5,561,177, oils which contain unsaturated fatty acid esters have the disadvantage that they become unstable at high temperatures or after being stored for a given time.
Furthermore, fixing creams which contain such oils are less solid owing to the unsaturated double-bonds present, that is to say, too liquid to be used as a fixing cream.

Abstract

Improved composition of a fixing cream containing at least one oil and / or fat, preferably plant oil, such as, for example, an olive oil, at least one water-soluble polymer selected from the group of cellulose derivatives, at least one alkyl vinyl ether / maleic acid anhydride copolymer and, as the additional substances, at least trihydroxystearin.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to fixing cream compositions according to the preambles of claims 1 and 3.PRIOR ART[0002]Many commercial fixing cream compositions for prosthetic teeth are based on a mixture of refined paraffins, water-soluble cellulose derivative polymers and alkyl vinyl ether / maleic acid anhydride copolymers. Conventionally, mineral oils and mineral fats, in particular Vaseline, are used. Mineral oils and fats generally constitute approximately 40% by weight or more of the fixing cream composition.[0003]Since a fixing cream slowly dissolves in the mouth during use, on the one hand there is the possibility that components of the cream enter the body via the mucous membranes of the mouth and pharynx and, on the other hand, components reach the digestive tract with the saliva and the food and may subsequently become distributed throughout the body. The basic components of Vaseline and mineral oil are not completely harmless according to the most rece...
