Good luck in sleeping. I use the nose pillows and love them. I have a regular over-the-nose mask for times it is difficult to use the nose pillows, but luckily I don't need a mouth guard or over the mouth mask. I have a friend who is having difficulty trying to use the full nose and mouth mask. He's just started using his CPAP and is trying to get adjusted to it. Good Night. Provider

Do you use the mouth guard to prevent biting in your sleep? I have, for years, been biting the inside of my lower lip or the side of my tongue. I've ruined pillows with blood stains. Not to mention putting up with days of swollen tongue or lip until the bite heals. Interesting thing though. A couple months ago I bought a new "Sleep Number" bed. After I got it properly adjusted, I haven't bitten myself ONE time. The other day I napped on my couch. In about 30 minutes I had bitten my tongue twice and finally got up.

Years ago I used to grind teeth and I was given some type of guard. I would work every night as I was going to sleep to tell myself not to grind. Gradually that did happen. I could sleep without the guard. Lately, years later;) I have found that I do clench my teeth at night sometimes and I shall have to begin that process again. It can work because I proved it on myself however it did take time. Maybe when you recover your guard you could try that for awhile. Disclaimer I am not a dentist and I only play one on the Internet ;)
