Introduction
INTRODUCTION ABOUT FIXON POWDERFixon Powder is a denture adhesive used to hold denture securely all day long and manage food particles from going underneath the denture surface.

Use Fixon powder as directed as advised by your physician. Slightly wet the denture and sprinkle Fixon powder on the denture surface. Insert the denture and hold it firmly by biting for few seconds to secure the denture in place. KEY COMPOSITION Carboxy Methyl Cellulose THERAPEUTIC
