Hello
There are a couple of threads here that discuss using an athletic boil and fit mouthpiece in place of tape. For some unexplained reason it works for some (not all) people. I tried it last night and had pretty good success. I did take it out in the middle of the night but then my "wind tunnel" woke me up and I put it back in. It is something else to get used to but easier I think than taping the mouth shut. That is something that I am just not willing to try.
Thought it worth mentioning.

Hi mr President, thanks for that tip. I wonder if it has something to do with keeping the tongue in place, so that it keeps the seal. As far as I understand, the bite guards don't change the position of your jaw, correct?
