thanks for your query,
i have gone through your question, i feel you have got a fungal infection over the denture wearing area...that will cause pain and burning sensation, stop using the denture for 5days and you need to apply topical antifungal ointment...other cause for your pain could be a sharp boundary of your denture for that you need to consult your dentist to treat that...
i hope my answer will help you...
