Test Group
Treatment Gel: In the evening subjects will perform their regular denture cleaning routine. They will be instructed to sleep without dentures. Subjects will rinse out their mouth with water (if subjects brush their oral mucosa with brush, they will be allowed to continue doing so) and apply the gel to their mucosa where they normally wear upper or lower denture.
Control Group
Sham Control: Subjects will perform their regular denture cleaning routine.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 3

The mucosal region under the denture was assessed with one score per arch (two total arches) each arch is scored ranging from 0(better) - 3(worse). The scores are then summed for a total score. The scale is measured as follows: 0 = pink firm tissue absent of redness and inflammation; 1 = mild redness or inflammation - slight change in color and little change in texture; 2 = moderate redness and/or inflammation - moderate glazing, redness, edema and hypertrophy 3 = severe redness and/or inflammation - marked redness and hypertrophy.
