I have been reading a lot and it seems like everything I am feeling is normal, however, no one really has stated how long new dentures hurt. I keep reading about people who got their dentures in immediately following extraction. I couldn't even imagine how painful that would be. My teeth were extracted over a year ago, and the dentures I just got yesterday are making my gums burn and ache so bad! Any suggestions on things I can do to help with the pain while I am in the "adjustment stage"?

I've had dentures for 5 years now and any time I feel pain, I know there's something wrong. Dentures, new or old, should not hurt. Be uncomfortable while you're adjusting, yes, actual pain, no. Please go back to your dentist and let them know. They can make adjustments for the dentures to fit better.
I did the dentures imeditalty after the pulling of the teeth and no issues yes the soreness but u have to stay away from chewing types of foods eat soft foods like pudding , soups, anything mashed up don't put sores from chewing on your gums
