CPAP Masks: Sleep Well, Stop Snoring, and Overcome Sleep Apnea

A CPAP mask fits over your nose and delivers a steady stream of air all night long, minimizing or eliminating snoring and other sleep apnea symptoms. With a steady supply of oxygen, you sleep better, wake more rested, and experience less daytime sleepiness.

The CPAP machine feeds you a continuous stream of positive air pressure. The air travels from the breathing machine, through a flexible tube, and into a sleep mask held in place with headgear.

CPAP masks come in different styles, and it's important that your sleep mask fit you properly for your CPAP sleep apnea therapy to be effective. Without a good seal, the CPAP machine's pressurized air could end up in your bedroom, not your lungs.

Don't Forget to Floss!

Clean between teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner. Decay-causing bacteria can hid between teeth where toothbrush bristles can't reach. Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line.

Visit Our Office Regularly!

Take good care of your smile. Remember to visit the dentist regularly for professional cleanings and oral exams.

Mouthwash Is Important, Too!

Brushing and flossing may not be enough. The ADA now recommends using an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce plaque and prevent gingivitis.
