Responses of patients to the proposed questions were evaluated.Results: Statistical analysis of the data showed that denture soreness on residual ridge and vestibule was maximum (72%), which was reduced to 12% after one week. Lack of retention in centric and eccentric was 44%, which was reduced to 15% one week later. Gag reflex and speaking inability was reduced from 44% to 4% in one week.
