Sore throat, white spot on the middle of roof since onset of denture. Advice?
Patient: I just got top denture for the first time 4 days ago & 2 days ago I started with a sore thorat and today I see a white spot in the middle of the roof of my mouth right at the back edge of the denture, I would think if it were sore from the denture it would be red or could this white (small about 1/8 x 1/4 ) spot be from the new denture, otherwise they seem to fit really good. Doctor: hello,  the white spot may be due to denture irritation. this can be due to low quality of denture/irregular borders/ill-fitting denture.  apply mucopain gel on the affected site.  get your denture borders smoothened to remove the irregularities.  visit your dentist as prolonged use of such denture can cause denture hyperplasia.  regards dr.bindiya
