Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have swollen gums dont worry it can be due to denture may be due to sharp edges of denture hurts you causing pain and that hurts you tongue also.


You consult dentist and go for denture trimming if there is shap edges.

You do proper clening of denture .

Apply ointment Mucopain or Dologel on painful area of tongue twice daily.

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day .

Hope this will help you.
