Adhesive: No you should not use adhesive. You must tell your dentist what the problem is and I am almost certain she/he will help you some more. Please let me know what develops

Extractions: Extraction sites are open wounds that are healing. During that time you do not want to introduce anything into the sockets. Depending on which teeth were extracted, a TINY bit of adhesive could be placed in the area of the denture that does not cover the extractions sites. If you are confused, consult your local dentist.
