First Set ?: If so, it may take some time getting accustomed to them. Were they immediate dentures? If so, then they may not fit as well as they should. How long do you have them? It can take a couple of weeks for some people to become comfortable. In any event, have the dentist who made them make sure the bite, fit, and vertical dimension are all correct... All the best.

Learn to use them: Dentures are artificial prosthesis that require getting used to them. When new they also increase saliva flow. Try and be patient learning to use them! it takes time.

See your dentist: I suggest you have a follow up exam with your dentist. You may just be adjusting to your new appliance, but something could be incorrect. Good luck.

See dentist: And have dentures checked and adjusted. If they won't do anything see another dentist.
