What are the benefits of mouth taping?
Mouth tape may benefit a wide range of people, including:
• Snorers – It helps keep the airway open by encouraging nasal breathing, reducing the vibrations that cause snoring.
• People with dry mouth – Sealing the lips helps retain moisture, preventing dryness during sleep.
• Those with disrupted sleep – Nasal breathing supports deeper, more restorative sleep.
However, individuals with nasal congestion, sleep apnea, or respiratory conditions should speak with a healthcare professional before using mouth tape.

How does mouth taping affect oral health?
While many users find mouth taping helpful, there are a few things to consider:
• Skin irritation – Some may experience redness or discomfort, even with our hypoallergenic, medical-grade adhesive.
• Breathing difficulty – If nasal passages are blocked, taping the mouth can restrict airflow.
• Initial discomfort or anxiety – Some people feel uneasy with their mouth taped shut.
If you're new to mouth taping, try it for short daytime sessions to get used to the feeling before wearing it overnight.
Mouth breathing can dry out the mouth, increase bacterial buildup, and contribute to tooth decay. Saliva plays a key role in protecting your teeth and gums, and keeping your mouth closed at night helps maintain its natural balance.
Mouth tape may:
• Help preserve saliva levels.
• Reduce bacterial growth and bad breath.
• Support overall oral hygiene and reduce the risk of gum disease.
If you have existing dental concerns, consult your dentist before starting mouth taping.
