Virginia (VA) Denture Wearers and Neurological Injury

There has been a lot of reporting in the news about the connection between use of denture cream products and serious injury and illness.  Specifically, denture creams, like Polident and Fixodent, can cause zinc poisoning and neuropathy.  The symptoms may include stomach problems, such as cramps, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting.  Zinc toxicity could also cause seizures, jaundice, joint pain, or low blood pressure.

As Virginia based attorneys who specialize in serious injury claims, we are looking out for cases where these serious neurological problems have developed in the large percentage of our population in Hampton Roads, Virginia who wear dentures and use adhesive cream products. Given the general aging of the population especially baby boomers in America, the chances that your family has been affected by this unsafe product is high.  If you have any questions about possibly filing a products liability claim related to denture products and neurological injury, you should feel free to contact our law firm.  As always, the initial consultation is free and with no obligation.
