Using a dental retainer with Tap Pap Nasal Pillow Mask

Post by Redwitch » Wed May 06, 2015 9:47 am

I wear a dental retainer and would like to use the tap pap nasal pillow mask. Can the mouth piece be used with a retainer. I have to wear the retainer at night, therefore, eliminating it is not an option.

No.
I have had both, and they fit and work differently enough that any mod to combine the two
could ruin the expensive orthodontics you have already had.
Cute idea, but IMO, a bad one.

Thank you! I called the manufacturer in Texas and got the same reply.
