Guaze: Guaze is very effective in removing denture adhesive as it grabs it much better than tissue or paper towel. Drug stores sell it over the counter.

Lotsa work: Hard to do, both in mouth and from denture. Best if you use very little, obviously. Warm water and toothbrush & washcloth for denture. Gauze pads, warm water and washcloth and fingers for mouth. If you are relying on this to hold dentures in, you need to see a prosthodontist for an evaluation of proper fit. The package tells you this. You will accelerate bone loss with ill-fitting dentures.

Stiff toothbrush: They make a denture tooth brush which is much stiffer than a conventional toothbrush.
