Most complaints about dentures mention excessive salivation. You have the opposite effect. Have you tried keeping your dentures in water or in special denture soaking solution before inserting them?. This will ensure that there will be moisture when you insert them. There are specialists who make& fit dentures you could consult.

Put some lip balm on lips and place a little Vaseline on outside of denture that contacts both upper and lower lips.
