What was your experience fighting mouth leaks?

Thanks a bunch!

I have been a mouth breather for a while.
Best solution so far was cover roll stretch tape.
It's been working so far

Dodie, I actually bought a travel pillow hoping something like that would work. I can't envision your setup, though. Do you orient the pillow like a C, a U, or an upside-down U? Where exactly do you put your head? Do you sleep on your side?

I've tried using a buckwheat pillow and put a big dent in the middle for my head so I can't open my jaw. That didn't stop the mouth leaks, but it did at least keep my jaw from moving.

hi, i have positioned like a C, so my head gets support and i cant chin-tuck

Mouth leaker all my life and no end in sight!
Small lips, small chin, face thin , full set of teeth, a bit crooked, all from years of mouth breathing.
Started with nasal mask, switched to full face a couple months ago.
Back to nasal with mouth taping and that has been the best!
Trying myotape now, but not working at all.
May try lip balm of some sticky type, someone from Australia posted that awhile ago.

Also, i see you have a very wide range of pressure.
On your posted Oscar chart, it looked like your major leak started rightafter pressure went high.

Wondering if you might try lowering your max pressure?

I found i could really lower my CPAP pressure once i had my mouth taped, using dreamware nasal mask.

And there are many posts, and WIKI information showing that the AUTO pressure function can really get out of control sometimes, so
i think it would be worth a try for you.
