Denture wearer

Post by Linda1904 » Wed Mar 30, 2016 3:34 am

Is it better to leave my dentures in to get a better mask fit or our there masks that fit better for denture wearer who take them out at night?

Try it both ways.
Fit is individual, like shoes, only with way fewer sizes.

If you could use a nasal pillow type mask like the ResMed Airfit P10, it probably wouldn't matter.
