chin straps

Posted by buckthorn on July 21, 2008 at 12:22:18:
I have to wear a chin strap to keep my mouth closed while sleeping because my UP3 operation. The one I use is a wide elastic band with velcro on one end.
It isn't too uncomfortable but it changes the position of my CPAP mask so I'm wondering what other people use to keep their mouth closed when using CPAP?
Anyone?
