The Many Forms of the CPAP Mask

Whether you sleep on your side, back or stomach, there is a CPAP mask for you.  Your CPAP mask should be secure and comfortable, allowing for maximum quality sleep for the entire night.  There are many CPAP masks to choose from including the nasal, nasal pillow and full face mask. Nasal Mask [caption id="attachment_419" align="alignright" width="280" caption="CPAP Nasal Pillow"]CPAP Nasal Pillow[/caption] Your nasal mask fits securely over the nose with headgear fastened at both the top and the bottom of the triangular shape attachment.  This mask is most commonly used for people that sleep on their side and need a lightweight mask for comfort. Nasal Pillow A nasal pillow fits securely to the base of the nostrils with two small pillows that are attached by headgear on either side of the pillows.  This mask has the least amount of contact with the face and is most effective for patients who only breathe through their nose while sleeping. Full Face Mask Many CPAP users require a full face mask which covers the nose and mouth.  This mask is most effective for patients who breathe through their mouth during sleep. There are endless options in CPAP mask designs and we recommend discussing these options and your preferences with a local respiratory provider.  Complete our form to find a provider in your area!
