I have a partial denture and as the day goes on my tongue and upper palate get a burning sensation and my tongue gets very sore. I've had tests to see if I'm allergic to the acrylic, but these proved to be negative. Please help, it's so uncomfortable.

I wonder if it could be the denture adhesive, if you use any. Ask your dentist or denturist.
Are you a smoker? I thought my dentures were to blame when the same thing happened to me. I just happened to change cigarette brands a few days later and the burning went away! If you're not a smoker, it could also be denture adhesive if you use it. The only kind I've found that I can use is Fixodent Clear.
I have the same problem and have seen an article from an American dentist who's patient had a similar problem . He eventually dicke red that they were allergic to the pink colouring in the acrylic....He had dentures made of clear acrylic and the burning stopped.
