Search around to different CPAP suppliers websites. You will eventually find one that carries the Respironics Complete Face Mask. None of the suppliers in the Sleepmall carry it btw. That sucker will do away with mouth breathing for sure, and I don't think it would be possible for it to slip enough to allow serious leakage. It covers from your forehead to bottom of your chin and from ear to ear. Has a huge seal to and beefy straps to keep it snug.

This was discussed once here but I don't think anything ever came of it. Someone mentioned it would be horrible to not be able to see. Well, it is completely clear and where the tube attaches is low enough so that it will be no more obstructive than any other mask. Lists for $299 on the site I found it on, but if it solves the problem might be worth a go with it.
