Dentures are generally made from 3 parts PMMA (polymethylmethacrolate) powder to 1 part MMA (methylmethacrolate) monomer or liquid. It is mixed into a dough like state where it is then packed into a split flask lost wax technique process. it is then processed in a water bath at 73C for nine hours and afterwards it is finished and polished and presented to a patient. In this particular method it is relatively unheard of to have an allergic reaction to the denture. But not impossible. Some people will still have a reaction to any free monomer that maybe left in the denture after processing. Which may present itself as the "burning mouth syndrome" or a reddening of the tissue that is in contact with the denture.
However this also may be because there are some alternative methods of processing dentures that are shorter and quicker but leave much more residual monomer for the patient to deal with after such methods of processing.
This is basic information that will be made available to the patient through the licensed dental practitioner should the patient know enough to ask. There in also lies a problem. Most people will not question a person with a Doctor in front of the name. Put as in anything that you purchase now-a-days and educated consumer is the best defense against inferior quality in a product, any product.

Yes. The denture acrylic that the denture is made of can dry out and look bleached out. You did not ask this but I will throw it in anyway. Dentures should be cleaned daily as well.
Porcelain is the highest grade, non staining and wears well, but may chip, but also very expensive. Acrylic dentures are less expensive, may stain with improper maintenance, and are susceptible to abrasion.
Nail acrylic is not bio compatible. They can cause health hazards especially when in contact with soft tissues of the mouth. That means that you can repair your dentures using it but it can give you other diseases such as Cancer.
Acrylic dentures can cause some pain and discomfort when you first get them but should not cause a burning pain. You should try using different denture cream and see if it goes away.
Allergies to Dentures are very rare. If You think you may be you can do a test with a sample of acrylic to wear on the roof of your mouth, You will have to get this made from your Dentist or Denturist.
