Thoughts on mouth tape
-
I've been using mouth tape to sleep for over a year now. Overall, I've had better sleep, and my mouth doesn't feel dry after waking up. I use 3M micropore tape. It feels weird in the beginning, but you adapt to it pretty quickly.
I've never been a mouth breather, but when I sleep my jaw is so relaxed that it drops as soon as I fall asleep. I'm basically the opposite to the people who grind their teeth. And the only way that I can keep my mouth shut and stop my pillows from getting wet with my drool is by using mouth tape.
So I would recommend anyone to try it out and see if their quality of sleep improves.

i attribute mouth taping to the reduction of my apnea issues a couple of years ago. if you tape nightly for a couple of months you should be able to breathe through your nose while you sleep without the tape.
