Some answers about partial dentures?!

Some answers about partial dentures?

i got my partial denture today (to fill the gap of the missing teeth, until i get the implants).

the denture is very tight, which the dentist said it would be so it doesn't fall out. but there abit of gum thats being squashed and its all red and i can taste abit of blood and theres pain in the tooth next to the fake teeth (i'm guessing because of the pressure to hold the denture), will this pain stop over time? and how to ease the pain?

is it also true that i have to remove the partial denture every night? (im worried that the pain will be more next day if i keep taking it out)

A partial denture can cause as much pain and discomfort as a full denture, dentures are like new shoes I'm afraid, they wont mould to your gums straight away and take some time to get used to.
What you need to do is wear the denture as much as possible so when you go back to the dentist for an EASE the dentist will be able to see exactly the places that are causing you the most discomfort and he/she will be able to file these areas.
The after care for partial dentures is the same as full dentures, you should keep them clean by scrubbing with soap and cold water, as they are partial dentures you have a higher risk of plaque retention forming, and you should remove them every evening and leave them to soak over night.
If you fail to keep them clean and stick to a good oral hygiene routine you could end up with a painful condition called
Denture Stomatitis, this is where the soft tissues covered by the denture become sore and inflammed.
Hope this has been of some help.
