What Happens When You Use Mouth Tape?
Proper Jaw Alignment
Mouth tape keeps your mouth closed while you sleep, which helps your jaw stay in a healthy position and supports the muscles in your face.
Reduces Snoring
By stopping mouth breathing, mouth tape keeps air moving through your nose instead of your mouth, which helps prevent the throat vibrations that cause snoring.
Improves Sleep Quality
It makes you breathe through your nose, which brings in more oxygen and helps your body relax, so you get deeper, more restful sleep.
Reduces Dry Mouth & Sore Throat
When your mouth stays closed, less air dries out your mouth and throat, so you wake up without that scratchy, dry feeling.
Better Daytime Energy
Nose breathing at night helps your body get more oxygen while you sleep, so you wake up feeling more refreshed and clear-headed during the day.

Studies on Mouth Tape
Mild Sleep Apnea & Snoring Improvement
This pilot study looked at mouth-breathing adults with mild obstructive sleep apnea (AHI < 15). Using a standard tape to keep the mouth closed cut both the snoring index and the apnea‑hypopnea index roughly in half, compared to baseline, highlighting its potential as a first-step alternative before CPAP or surgery.
Oral Health & Jaw Muscle Support
Breathing through the nose instead of the mouth helps reduce dry mouth, supports better oral pH balance, and alleviates jaw tension—creating a healthier environment that may support facial alignment over time.
Sleep Quality & Snoring Claims
These summaries note potential benefits for sleep quality, snoring reduction, and oral dryness.
Positive Effects on Oxygenation & CPAP Compliance
Nose breathing promotes nitric oxide production, filters and humidifies inhaled air, and supports better oxygen uptake. For CPAP users, mouth taping can help reduce mask air leak and improve comfort.
Encourages Nasal Breathing Benefits
By gently promoting nasal breathing, mouth taping helps stabilize the airway—reducing snoring and potentially lowering daytime fatigue in people with mild OSA.
Reduced Snoring & Air Leak in OSA Patients
A review of 9 studies (2019–2024) shows consistent findings: mouth taping improved snoring and AHI in mild OSA, and helped reduce mouth leak when used alongside a mandibular advancement device.
Snoring & Mild Sleep Apnea Improved by ~50%
In 20 adults with mild OSA who breathed through their mouth, taping reduced both the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and snoring index (SI) by about 47%, along with improved oxygen desaturation index and lowest saturation during sleep. Thirteen of 20 participants (65%) responded with significant reductions.

Results may vary depending on current sleep and breathing habits. Here are some things you may notice within the first 1-9 months of using Hushly.
Month 1 - More Energy and Better Sleep
- After only a few uses, you (and your partner) might notice a reduction in snoring and sleep disturbances, leading to more restful sleep and more energized days.
Month 3-4 - More Defined Jaw and Face
- Nasal breathing during sleep encourages proper tongue posture against the roof of the mouth, engaging and toning the muscles in the jaw and lower face, providing a subtle, natural enhancement over time.
Month 6-9 - Improvements in Oral Health
- By preventing mouth breathing during sleep, the use of mouth tape can reduce the risk of dry mouth, and subsequently diminish the likelihood of dental issues such as cavities and gum disease.
We always recommend assessing your needs and consulting with a healthcare provider for the best treatment options. Mouth taping isn’t for everyone, but Hushly has been a game-changer for many with mild OSA.
To keep your airway open, the tongue should ideally rest on the roof of your mouth. Mouth breathing can cause the tongue to drop to the floor, increasing the risk of it falling back into the throat. Hushly helps keep the tongue in the right position. If you use a CPAP, we suggest pairing Hushly with a nasal mask for optimal results.
Absolutely. Hushly is CPAP-friendly and works seamlessly with a nasal mask. It stops mouth breathing and can improve your sleep quality by fixing the "air leak" that often comes with CPAP machines.
Absolutely. While mouth taping isn’t for everyone, many don’t realize that consistent nasal breathing can improve your nose's function. Over time, it can dilate your airways and reduce congestion. Many allergy sufferers have noticed a real difference while using Hushly. Start by practicing during the day, and once you’re comfortable, wear it all night for the best results.
