The great thing about having so much variety when it comes to CPAP masks is that there is literally something for everybody. If you are having trouble finding a traditional mask in the categories of nasal masks, nasal pillows masks and full face masks, you may want to think outside the box and explore some niche options. People who have purchased these masks become immediate converters and swear to never use another mask ever again. For instance, the TAP PAP Nasal Pillow Mask System is popular because it eliminates many of the more common problems that people experience with other masks, like leakage and discomfort. Also, the hose on this mask system runs in the opposite direction – over your nose – and attaches to a clip on the headgear. This can be ideal because it gives you more freedom of motion when you sleep. Another mask that seems to float over your face is the Breeze SleepGear Mask System, which does not have any straps at all – it uses the contour of your head to stay on, which can offer a totally non-restrictive CPAP mask experience. Plus, this mask is ultra-quiet and ultra-comfortable with unique cushions that that allow for maximum comfort.

When all is said and done, if you are drowning in the endless sea of choosing a CPAP mask, it is important to nail down whether you are a nasal mask kind of person, a nasal pillows mask kind of person or a full face mask kind of person. That is your first step in simplifying the whole process.  All in all, though, there is a definitive trend within all these masks: extreme comfort and ease of use. By choosing a mask in any one of these categories, you will have a more comfortable CPAP experience and you’ll get the most out of your treatment – plus, you’ll look good doing it too.
