Mouth Breathing
I woke up during the night to find myself breathing through my mouth, using mirage quattro FF. I guess my nose got stuffy and I subconciencly switched to mouth breathing. It was comfortable, is there a problem with therapy if I mouth breath in the mask?

Re: Mouth Breathing
Nope. Full face masks were designed so you can mouth breathe and get good therapy.

Re: Mouth Breathing
If you have your humidifier set too high, it can actually cause more nasal congestion......which would cause you to mouth-breathe. If that's the case, you should consider turning your HH setting down or Off, so you can breathe through your nose. And, if you're not already, you should consider doing nasal cleansing/irrigation before bedtime.
