In perusing CPAP.com for a new mask, I came across Nasal Prong Masks. I'm not at all familiar with these, and would appreciate any input from those of you who use, or have used, a Nasal Prong. Do they have advantages vs. Nasal Pillow Masks?
Many thanks! Emily

Re: Nasal Pillow vs. Nasal Prong
I used to have the P10 you have, haven't used cpap masks that use nasal prongs, but if you're looking at new masks and have the P10 and want to see a recent alternative you may also want to check out the one in my profile. Happy to answer questions if it looks of any interest to you.EmilySleeps wrote:In perusing CPAP.com for a new mask, I came across Nasal Prong Masks.
