shyvon,
Are you still wearing the ill fitting partial denture? Do you leave it in when you sleep? If so, then this could be one cause of your pain and swelling. So stop wearing it.
I would suggest that you do not wait to see your dentist just in case you have developed an infection. Also, they will not be able to take new impressions for a new partial denture if you have any swelling as the partial is made according to your anatomy. Which means it will not fit once the swelling goes down.
Had this extracted tooth been root canaled? Is the other front tooth root canaled?
It is common for the adjacent teeth to become temporarily sore after a tooth is removed. But the only way to rule out an infection is to see the dentist.
Please let us know how you are doing.
