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.
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.
