chinstrap with FFM?

Post by Guest » Tue Sep 25, 2007 6:04 pm

My doctor recommended I use a chinstrap with my full face mask to keep the opening in my mouth smaller (I don't want it all the way closed). Has anyone had experience combining these. I'm looking at the Respironics Premium chinstrap but I want to make sure it will fit in conjunction with the mask.

Sounds like a defective Doctor. You shouldn't need that, and it can pull your jaw rearward and make things worse. Jim
