What Causes Soreness On My Gums After Fixing Partial Denture?

I am 55 year old female who goes to the dentist regularly and I have a partial denture on the top. For the past few months I have experienced skin shedding inside my mouth on my gums (upper and lower) and cheeks and bleeding when I brush and floss. I am also having discomfort when I eat, it feels as though the food is getting stuck at the top of my stomach. Could these symptoms be caused by the same medical problem?
