RE: What setting for Oral mask only
Change your setting to 8-20, (or something narrower like 13-20, then do a test.
You should notice a difference.

You're fine.  I'm still amazed people even post at all about such a subject. Smile Anyway, I think this thread is done. I am noting my progress on another one.

Example:  pressure range set at 6minimum and 12 maximum.  The test will start at 12 and wind down to 6.  

If your machine is at default settings of 4-20, then it will start at 20, which may blow you away.   Smile

The mask fit on my Resmed S9 VPAP Auto.goes to my highest set pressure (I think) which is 20.6 but I have never felt it backing down until it shifted to therapeutic pressure.

Best REgards,
