Obtain a minimum series of 3 visits with a dentist for adjustments using indicator paste every 24 hours. Some old time practitioners make their own with zinc oxide powder and Cisco.
You get rid of denture pain by getting properly fitted dentures initially. Later because the gums change over time you will need to refit them with a reline material to better adapt the denture's to your new gum position. Gums change size do to age, weight loss or weight gain, and wearing your dentures to bed.
