F & P Vitera mask slipping into mouth
Hi,
I love the Vitera mask, but Have one problem with it slipping up and the bottom slipping into my mouth. Not sure if the Medium needs to be changed smaller or larger? Any suggestions? Tape? Re-positioning straps? Glue?
Thanks in advance..

RE: F & P Vitera mask slipping into mouth
I haven't used Vitera but have used other FFMs. When I sleep and fully relax, my mouth pops open and opens below the FFM seal. It leaks like crazy. For reason, I have abandoned FFMs and use a nasal pillow mask plus mouth taping. Works very well for me.
