Best practices want the Dim_Date to be a list of distinct days with no gaps, with no time.
In this way you will be able to use it as a calendar table for your model and to use all the Time Intelligence functions.
In your fact you should calculate the date and link it the Dim_Date with a 1:M relationship that goes from Dim_Date to Fact.
