I've been hearing mixed advice about dentures—some people swear by sleeping with them in for comfort, others insist soaking overnight is healthier. I'm kinda torn, you know...what do you guys prefer and why?
Actually, it's generally healthier to give your gums a break overnight. Keeping dentures in constantly can sometimes lead to irritation or even infections. I get the comfort thing, though—maybe try giving yourself short breaks first and gradually get used to soaking overnight? Most people find their gums feel fresher and healthier once they adjust...just something to think about.
Hmm, interesting point...but does everyone really need to soak overnight? I've heard some people just take short breaks during the day instead. Wonder if that's enough to avoid irritation or infections. Curious if anyone's tried that approach.
