[|Human|] Hi..I had 18 extractions and full upper and lower dentures done 2days ago..I had several absessed teeth in my mouth.and where the most painful one was on the bottom gum up front is sooooooo increadiably sore it brings me to tears ...which also hurt..I know it will take a long time to feel any better but what can I do to releave the pains in my gums?
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor, Dentures are fabricated only when the extraction sockets are completely healed and closed. Any ulcerated area on the gums or the healing wound may become worse if dentures are used over it.I guess you have inflamed alveolar ridge or ulcerated area which is sore and hurts on application of biting forces.I would suggest you to discontinue the use of denture till the area is healed as the pressure of the denture may worsen the area. You can apply antiseptic oral ointment like denote over the affected area which helps in healing. Mouth rinsing with lukewarm saline water may give soothing effect.I hope this helps, take care
