Mouth
leak due to mouth breathing is a significant problem that can potentially 'deflate' or compromise your CPAP therapy. When airescapes through you mouth, you miss out the full benefit of the delivered treatment pressure. You may experience this whether you are an experienced CPAP user or completely new to
therapy.
Why is mouth breathing a problem?
Mouth breathing and the mouth leak cycle-
Normally as you breathe, the air flowing in and out through the nose s warmed and moistened. Mouth breathing impedes this normal
process, resulting in nasal and mouth dryness. Aggravated by the extra flow of air during therapy, this may laed to nasal inflammation and congestion. a vicious cycle begins where increased nasal resistance forces you to keep breathing through you mouth.
Who needs a full face mask?
Everyone
who experiences mouth leak-
Like many people using a positive airway pressure device, you will probably experience mouth leak at some time. This is common to around 40% of all CPAP user and almost all bilevel device users. Your clinician or sleep health professional may recommend a full face mask to minimize mouth leak and associated side effects.
How frequently does mouth leak occur & when does one need a full face mask?

For many people using positive airway pressure therapy, mouth breathing and leak occur every night. These may also increase at specific times, due to other factors such as colds, allergies, or alcohol consumption. you may need to use an Ultra Mirage Full Face mask regularly or occasionally, depending on these factors.
