Looking for a study chinstrap...

Sorry with the never ending questions, but you all have been there and done that.

I am looking for a chin strap that will basically lock my jaw in place. I have learned that my lips and tounge form a pretty good seal, but my jaw REALLY tries to flop open. I've tried one chin strap, but the elastic loosened up after a week. I would prefer a chin strap that wraps around the back of the head without elastic so that the jaw is held in place. I can always open my lips and breath through my teeth if I need to for some reason.

Any ideas?

I have the Sullivan chin strap from Resmed. Has a little elasstic to it, but has not loosened on me yet. Velcro is very strong. Hope this helps.

I have been using the The Respironics Premium Chinstrap available through CPAP.COM. https://www.cpap.com/productpage/1002

I am very pleased with it. I had the same problem, as you, with other products.

I have since seen a neat web site that also has some great looking ones

These may be available through CPAP.COM also, I don't know. A phone call will tell you.

My expierence with CPAP.COM has been great. [/url]
