Hello,
Now, if all the tests you did so far, including X-rays, cat scan, or MRI resulted negative, then, there is nothing you should be worried about. You say to have a denture on the bottom front row of teeth. Usually, dentures are associated with thrush, that's the most right diagnosis passes on our mind.
If nothing was found so far, I suggest to check your stomach and run upper endoscopy. Sometimes, the stomach hyper-acidity issues will give the same symptoms you're experiencing or making them worse. Discuss this further with your caring doctor.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
