Can you sleep with dentures?

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.

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.
