Hello,
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.
As you think of, it is possible to apply super glue on broken dentures and let the glue dry completely before putting them in your mouth you will have no problems. This need special tools. Purchase an emergency denture repair kit from your local pharmacy.
Read the kit's instructions carefully and make repairs with the bonding adhesive where needed, such as for repairing structural fractures. Clean your dentures if necessary with a denture brush and denture cream to remove old adhesive, and ensure your dentures are completely dry before repairing either by allowing them to air dry or using a soft cloth. Press broken pieces together and hold for one to two minutes.
ile down old broken teeth in your dentures that requiring replacing. Read the kit's instructions about proper resin application and use the resin to fill in the tooth hole before inserting a new tooth. Hold the tooth in the denture hole for one to two minutes. Use bonding adhesive around the tooth's base to secure it.
However, repairing a broken debenture requires proper tools and an experienced technician.
Improperly cured debentures can cause irritation to your gums.
Please consult a dentist as soon as possible.
Hope this helps.
Please write back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
