Dentures and masks - DotLove - 07-27-2020
I've been on Cpap therapy for about 4 weeks. I have trouble with masks. I'm on my third try because there were leaking issues and pressure sores on my face no matter if the straps were tightened or loosened.
Now I am wondering if the air leak issues are because I don't wear my dentures to bed at night. I'd like to ask others what they do about their dentures while sleeping with cpap.
Thank you!

I tried a night or two with my dentures in. Didn’t seem to make much difference for me. Perhaps consider trying a nap or a night with your dentures in to see how it works for you. Good luck.
