Some patients will find it a challenge to get used to wearing new dentures. Dentures are foreign objects and cannot replicate the exact function and feel of natural teeth. It will require practice, patience, and time to get used to the new sensation during the adjustment period. Some patients develop sore spots during the adjustment period, and there are steps to help relieve the pain. In treating sore spots, the main goals will be to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and help fight infection. There are both products and actions that can help you feel more comfortable while wearing dentures.
Many dentists recommend putting dentures in the freezer, so when you put them back in your mouth it will soothe the irritation and help with any swelling. You can simply put the dentures in a Tupperware bowl and place it in the freezer. Sucking on Popsicle sticks or ice chips are known to help while you are waiting.

Many patients have found that applying Orajel and/or Bonjela to their gums help ease pain from sore spots as well. The Bonjela products are designed to help you feel more comfortable while wearing dentures, and they also help fight infection. Other patients open up vitamin E capsules (the gel versions) and dab the vitamin E oil on the sore spots to help heal the sores.
One of the most important steps to help prevent sores is to make sure to thoroughly brush the inside of the dentures. The more food that is built up onto them, the more sores will be developed, so it is important to keep them clear to prevent sores. Some stores sell a brush specifically designed for dentures, which help reach into spots that a normal toothbrush can't reach.
Three other tips are to: cut food into small sections and take small bites, be patient, and clean your denture after every meal. Read more about these tips here: http://lowpricedentures.com/blog/3-helpful-denture-tips
