Mouth tape, nasal strips and better sleep
Sleep better by breathing through your nose
Your nose filters, warms and humidifies every breath.
Your mouth doesn't. That difference adds up over eight hours.
A night of mouth breathing, hour by hour
What can happen when your mouth falls open in your sleep.
You fall asleep breathing through your nose.
Your jaw relaxes, your lips part, and you start breathing through your mouth.
The snoring starts. An open mouth is a common cause of it.
A dry mouth wakes you. Air that skips your nose isn't humidified.
You get up tired after eight hours in bed.
What the research says
A 2025 review found 10 small studies of mouth taping, all rated poor quality. The evidence for it is limited.
In a placebo-controlled trial of people with chronic rhinitis, snoring dropped from about 258 to 173 snores an hour with a nasal strip.
Your sinuses produce nitric oxide, which you breathe in when you breathe through your nose.
Trying it
How most people start
Check your nose
Breathe through it with your mouth closed for two minutes. Our nose test times it.
Open it up
If it feels blocked lying down, a nasal strip makes breathing through it easier.
Get used to the tape
Wear it for fifteen minutes while you read before you try it overnight.
