how well does this work if you are a mouth breather?

well, could you make a small hole between the night guard, so air can flow in and out.

Hi Kevin - my boyfriend says the mouthpiece holds the tongue in a little "caged" slot. The "impressions" (i.e., the upper / lower rows that mold to the teeth) are locked. I.e., you cannot open / close your mouth but only parse your lips. It could work. But if you begin intending to breathe primarily through your mouth, you may find yourself drooling a lot.

Its a costume respirator, but you can still breathe through it. I wouldn't suggest using it like you would a legit respirator though..

I have a basset and dausand - both LOVE them . Breath is a bit better. But let's face it - there is no miracle product for halitosis!!

My clients breathe easier after using it but if I were you I would ask either your doctor and/ or the manufacturer. Can never be too safe.

In my experience, it starts to work within minutes of chewing. I keep it in the car and use it whenever I feel sleepy. It perks me right up.

I would strongly recommend a real mouth guard, this pops on and off very easily, plus you need to worry about biting your tongue! Also most sports have pretty specific safety requirements.

I have not used mouthwash, but I don't see why it would not work just fine. We have two of theses and we both really like them. A lot easier to use that the "tethered" type that have the counter top pump and tank connected by a stiff coiled tube. These are a lot quieter than my old Water pick model.

Nope does not work get the mouth piece that lasts forever. It's the one that you boil and set your bottom jaw slightly forward. That works for the most part.

Yes it will prevent your mouth from opening if you have the strap on properly. I am sure that everyone is different as far as how you have the strap on. It will only take a few times for you to find the right position to keep your mouth from opening. This strap is a little more expensive that some of the others, and believe me, I have tried many and this one works the best. Hope this helps.

I have severe allergies and have no issues breathing personally. It does echo a bit though so if you breathe through your mouth it can sound a bit loud.

It's actually not that thick... I have the worst gag reflex and I've tried using the big 5 mouthpieces but this mouthpiece is best for me it lets me talk and I feel comfortable wearing it

I have no problems breathing with it. I tried the Sly Profit before this but I had a hard time breathing on that one. You can definitely hear yourself though with this mask compared to the profit. I hope this helps.

It works fine. It is pretty loud, but I have not had one for a while and maybe they are all that loud. It is a little difficult to snap the little attachments on and off. However, I will stop being nit-picky, it works well and leaves your mouth feeling so clean!

I don't stay down that long. I come up to breathe frequently while swimming for 20 minutes+ and it works fine.

It's not super hot. I've tried a lot of different mask and I really like this one. I'm a mouth breather too and this works well for me. I have been hand washing to keep it clean and free from dust etc.

It seems that my bad breath comes mainly from the post-nasal drip stuff that gets stuck in my tonsils. So after rinsing my mouth, I use a fresh cup of Smart-Mouth to gargle. Apparently it works because people at work no longer back up when I talk to them. I love Smart-Mouth.

I have been using it for about a year now, blow it up by mouth every once in a while just fine, no problem. But usually it deflates a bit when trying to screw it tight. Other Han that, it works fine. Try finding a person with "bigger" lung capacity to help you.
