I watched an episode of Doctor G. Medical Examiner, in which an older gentleman suffocated and died due to swallowing his dentures in his sleep. The dramatizations on the show are not real, but the story and death itself is real. Please be very careful, because it can and DOES happen.
It is much healthier for your gums to sleep without dentures. It will irritate the gums in your sleep which will result in sores on the gums. The gums need time to rest and to allow normal stimulation to maintain healthy gums. Also the dentures will collect plenty of germs in your mouth during the day, so it is good and recommended to soak them in warm water or a denture cleaner at night. Make sure to keep a routine cleaning of your dentures to insure healthy gums.
Dentures, however well fitted they may be, generally are less than perfectly comfortable, therefore people prefer to take them out when they sleep.
you choke and die.
Yes in fact you can.
Why do you think? I face f**k you while your sleeping :)
Yes, it is possible to sleep in full upper and lower dentures, but it is generally recommended to remove them at night to give your gums and tissues a chance to rest and to prevent any potential damage or discomfort. Sleeping without dentures allows for better oral hygiene and proper cleaning of the dentures themselves. It's best to consult with your dentist for personalized advice.
