What should I do if I experience respiratory discomfort such as dry mouth and nasal congestion when using a snoring respirator?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many patients will experience<strong>Dry mouth or stuffy nose<\/strong>This is usually related to dry airflow inside the ventilator, too high a pressure setting, or not using a heated humidifier.<\/p>\n<p>It is recommended that patients discuss with a sleep dentist or otolaryngologist to adjust the parameters of the ventilator or add<strong>Humidifier and nasal mask spacer<\/strong>To relieve
