Night Time Denture Care

Should you sleep with your dentures in? Most dentists and prosthetists recommend removing them at night — here is why.

Remove Dentures at Night

Taking your dentures out at night gives your gums a chance to rest and recover. It also reduces the risk of fungal infections and sore spots.

  • Gums need time to breathe and recover
  • Reduces risk of denture stomatitis
  • Soak dentures overnight in cleaning solution
  • Store safely in a denture case
