Yes and see your dentist so they can be adjusted.

Generally dentures should be worn at least 16 hours per day and it is not recommended to eat without your dentures.  Circumstances vary depending on how old your dentures are.  Sometimes wearing your dentures hurt because you don't wear them on a regular basis.  You should have your dentures checked by your dentist at least once every year.
