Dentures and masks

Dentures and masks
I've been on Cpap therapy for about 4 weeks. I have trouble with masks. I'm on my third try because there were leaking issues and pressure sores on my face no matter if the straps were tightened or loosened.
Now I am wondering if the air leak issues are because I don't wear my dentures to bed at night. I'd like to ask others what they do about their dentures while sleeping with cpap. 
Thank you!

RE: Dentures and masks
I tried a night or two with my dentures in.  Didn’t seem to make much difference for me.  Perhaps consider trying a nap or a night with your dentures in to see how it works for you.  Good luck.
