most common complaint - overextension causing laceration
after 6-8 months - recall and 2 relining / rebasing, this is due to high chances
of ridge resorption
if occlusion correction required

corrections
speech problems are commonly seen - advise patient that it will correct
automatically
increased salivation is due to increased parasympathetic activity - convince patient - recall and review after 1 week ok
