Struggling with Your CPAP Mask? Let’s Fix That.

A poorly fitting CPAP mask can lead to discomfort, air leaks, and inconsistent use—which ultimately affects your sleep and overall health. Here are some quick tips to help you find the right fit:

1. Get the Right Fit:
Work closely with your healthcare provider and CPAP supplier. Your face shape is unique, so the right mask for someone else might not work for you.

2. Choose the Right Mask Style:

  • Full Face Mask – Ideal for mouth breathers and restless sleepers. Some may find it bulky or restrictive.

  • Nasal Mask – Covers only your nose, offering a good balance of comfort and effectiveness.

  • Nasal Pillows – Lightweight and great for glasses wearers. Not ideal if you have frequent nasal congestion or move around a lot while sleeping.

3. Size Matters:
A "medium" in one brand may differ in another. Adjustable features are key to a proper fit.

4. Fine-Tune the Fit:
Your mask should be snug but not painful. If you're experiencing air leaks or irritation, talk to your provider about how to make adjustments.

A well-fitted mask means better sleep and better health. Don’t give up—keep working toward the perfect match.
