Treatment for sleep apnea can be as simple as wearing CPAP full face masks connected to CPAP machines or as expensive as surgeries. It is your choice; but it pays to know how CPAP therapy works before you opt to go under the knife.

Judge Them by Performance

In looks, full face masks for CPAP treatment are no beauties. But do not judge them harshly by their looks; these CPAP full face masks work efficiently to send air to your breathing system. Sleep apnea sufferers wake up frequently during the night to gasp for air. To prevent this, these masks work hard to give you restful KN95 mask  by continuously feeding pressurized air from the CPAP machine to sealed or obstructed air passageways.

Frequent bouts of sleep apnea can cause serious health problems. If you frequently lack sleep you lose focus, become irritable, and depressed. If the condition is not treated, the body breaks down for lack of sleep, giving rise to high blood pressure, stroke, and the worsening heart ailments. Other medical issues associated with sleep apnea are diabetes, extreme fatigue, and nervous disorders. With these threats to your health, CPAP full face masks become a necessity, never mind the looks.

These masks fit over the nose and mouth. They do the dual job of keeping the mouth closed during sleep while feeding air through nose. Sleep apnea patients who are mouth breathers do not get the optimum CPAP therapeutic effect because air escapes continuously through the mouth. To combat this, under-the-chin straps have been incorporated in some brand models.

Limited Styling: A Problem?

Patients are confronted by the limited styling of these masks. This problem is insignificant compared to the threat of untreated sleep apnea. What is important is choosing the CPAP full face masks with the right fit for maximum wearing comfort and security and that's that.

Triangular shape these are designed to fit contours of the face. Some models have thin plastic sheeting that moves instead of the headgear becoming dislodged. This is to accommodate movements during sleep. The mask should never move or air would escape or this would minimize the effectiveness of the treatment.

For support, chin straps have been added and to ensure security and comfort, chin straps and forehead straps are padded. These straps have vinyl or synthetic rubber but straps with gel-like material are now available. When these CPAP full face masks are used, the masks follow the contours of the face easing pressure points. Newer designs of full face masks have adjustable inflatable cushions, which users manipulate to prevent air leaks.
