Are you talking about the Cpap Pro?

Dry mouth is a good indication that you are mouth breathing, although I know the Cpap Pro advertises that this mask stops mouth breathing, but I’m skeptical. Dont-know

Use a mouth rinse before bed like Biotene or ACT Total Care Dry mouth rinse.

Also, try raising the humidity level.

Try using a nasal gel or an ointment to help with the nasal passages.

Also, using a nasal saline rinse a few times a week helps.
