The air blows out my mouth!

It's not uncomfortable at all, and it really holds my mouth and lips and cheeks in place so there's no chance of any air going anywhere it's not supposed to!

(Geee, I tried a FFM, but because of the shape of my mouth, and dimples, and whatever, I could not get a seal. Even the widest mask they had at my sleep place let the ends of my mouth stick out on either side. Oh well. I like my P10 nasal pillows. They're quite comfortable.)

Leemax:
I have tried different Chin Straps too. They were useless because although my jaw was closed the air could still escape between my teeth and through my lips. If the pressure is high, it always happens. My pressure was over 12 cm.
