Re: Mouth Drying Out ??
This is a common problem. I hope you are using the full face mask shown in your equipment profile and not a nasal interface. Nasal interfaces allow the therapeutic pressure to escape when you mouth breathe.
I use Biotene gel before going to bed. The trick is to place it between the upper teeth and the gums so that it helps all night long. This is not a perfect solution but it is a big help for dry mouth and it is a great preventative for gum disease and dental caries.
