Update on my situation: I got a full mask and it's amazing. No tooth pain and no pig nose! My husband makes fun of me for looking like a Top Gun pilot, but my mask isn't leaking and whistling when I roll toward him, so there's that. I feel like I'm really off to the races now.
Thanks everyone for the comments and advice. I'm going to switch to a full mask and see if that works for me. That way I can mouth breathe to my heart's content. After all, that is what landed me in this pickle in the first place. But I think a full mask may help some of the other issues I've been having such as the "pig nose" and nasal irritation caused by the nasal pillows. Thoughts?
Hi y'all, newbie here. I've had my CPAP for 10 days now and I love it. My problem is my front teeth hurt. At first I wasn't wearing a chin strap and I thought my jaw was becoming slack and my front teeth were sitting together instead of normally. I tried the chin strap and it helped somewhat but I had the still problem. I tried tightening it but that left me feeling strangled. Any ideas? (I have the nasal pillows if that makes a difference.) Thanks!
