You can wear your dentures at night, however, we recommend that you remove them while you sleep. This will give your jaw bone and gums time to relax without the pressure of your dentures being affixed to your jaw all day. You should make sure you never wear your dentures 24 hours in a row without providing any oral hygiene practices. If you must wear your dentures through the night, it is wise to find some time throughout the previous day to remove your dentures and properly clean them. This will ensure you avoid any poor oral hygiene and gives your jaw that much-needed rest.
