How do you keep edentures(false teeth) clean?

I have a set of edentures(false teeth). Apart from brushing my teeth, how do I keep it clean? For eg, when I want to go to bed I take it off. Should I put it in a solution or what?

How do you keep edentures(false teeth) clean?
With dentures removed, rinse oral tissues at least once daily. At this time, all surfaces of the denture should be thoroughly cleaned. A special denture brush is recommend for this purpose, harsh abrasives and toothpaste should be avoided. During cleaning, the denture is carefully held over a sink half filled with cool water. The denture must not be soaked in either hot water or a strong solution such as undiluted bleach b/c these will damage the denture. As a precaution to minimize damage if the denture is dropped, place a wash cloth at the bottom of the sink. When dentures are not in the mouth, they must be stored in a moist, airtight container to prevent drying and warpage.
Reply:i say put it in some kind of solution
Reply:use Polident. it's a denture cleaning tablet. you put your denture in a container with water and drop the tablet in.
