Answer to Question 1

Using a piece of gauze, rock the dentures out of the roof of the mouth and then from the bottom of the mouth. Place the dentures in a denture cup or kidney basin.

Answer to Question 2

You need a complete set of bedding and a bath blanket. A complete set of bedding consists of a bottom sheet, top sheet, blanket, bedspread, and pillow case. You can use a mattress pad, waterproof pad, and cotton drawsheet if necessary. For safety, logroll the person while changing the sheet. Use side rails or have another person help to make the task as safe as possible.
