Why am I not allowed to sleep with my denture in my mouth?

Bacteria accumulate in the micropores of your denture. This may lead to inflammation of your gums. It is therefore recommended to remove your dentures at night to let your gum tissue rest and recover from wearing the dentures during the day. Not doing so will lead to a painful condition called denture stomatitis.
