PATENT PENDING
GOODBYE CHINSTRAP,
HELLO SOMNOSEAL
I use a full face mask with my cpap and have had to also use a chinstrap to keep my mouth from drying out terribly through the night. The somnoseal has solved that issue. Now I don't have to go through the trouble of wrestling my head into a second harness to sleep. I just pop in the somnoseal and I'm set. It's been a welcomed change. Thank you!

CHINSTRAP PROBLEMS RESOLVED
I use a nasal mask with my CPAP and due to being a mouth breather, I had to use a chinstrap to keep my mouth closed. Now with the SomnoSeal, the dry mouth, the chinstrap lines, and the effectiveness issues of the CPAP have been resolved. I love it!

Mouth Breathing is Hurting Your Sleep
When you sleep, your jaw relaxes and can result in mouth breathing. Air flowing in or out of your mouth disrupts natural nose breathing and can lead to a number of negative health effects including dry mouth, snoring, and dental cavities. If you use a nasal CPAP, mouth leaking may make your CPAP less effective as air pressure needed to treat your apnea literally blows out your mouth!
What is The SomnoSeal™️?
The SomnoSeal™️ device is an oral sealing device to prevent mouth leaking while using nasal CPAP, improving overall treatment success.
You will gain comfort from the soft and flexible material designed to use all night without irritating your teeth or gums.
You will potentially reduce noisy mouth breathing resulting in quieter sleep for the user and bed partner.
You will find that the medical-grade silicone sits just inside your lips and is easy to remove with your tongue or with the built-in tab. It is easy to clean, does not require messy adhesives, and is compatible with facial hair.
How to Use SomnoSeal™️?

Once I tried the Somnoseal, I found that a small piece of tape vertically across my lips was enough to remind me not to open my mouth. I have been using the Somnoseal without problems for over a year now and can't imagine trying to sleep without it!
