CPAP and Oral Surgery

I use a Full Face Mask, and have to go for oral surgery this week. My concern is with all the air blowing on it, I do not want to end up with dry socket as I am told that is very painful and takes forever to heal. Any thoughts?

In regards to point number two, there have been several studies which have shown that increasing lung volume makes the airway less collapsible. Thank ...
