Standard Chin Strap by Philips Respironics

The standard chinstrap designed by Philips Respironics is a one size fits most. The chinstrap helps the user that has a tendency to mouth breathe while using a CPAP or Bi-Level machine.

The chinstrap can be worn on the outside of the mask, but most will put it on first and then the mask so the headgear helps keep the chinstrap in place.

Due to constant wear and tear, it is recommended to be replaced every 3-6 month, but may need to be replaced sooner, depending on the user.

Special Features

Encircles the head and attaches to itself on the top of the head. Can be used with any mask, nasal pillow or nasal prong system. Use a chinstrap if your mouth is drying out.

This is usually a good indication that your jaw is dropping, allowing the air from the CPAP to flow through the sinus and out the mouth.

Why Use a Chin Strap?

Are You a Mouth Breather? If you wake up with a dry mouth or throat, it may mean you are mouth breathing, and a chin strap can help keep your mouth shut.

High CPAP Pressures Cause Air Leakage: A partner may notice air escaping your mouth, or you might experience snoring. A chin strap helps maintain a proper seal by preventing this.

Mask Stability: It can help stabilize a CPAP mask or prevent you from taking it off while partially asleep.

How to Use a Chin Strap

The Right Fit: Ensure the strap is snug but not too tight. Overly tight straps can cause discomfort, breathing issues, jaw misalignment, or make TMJ symptoms worse.

Facial Hair Users: If you have a beard, you may need a larger size with a bigger chin cup and wider straps.

Ask Your Doctor: A doctor or sleep specialist can help determine if a chin strap is appropriate and can address any underlying issues, like nasal congestion that makes it hard to breathe through the nose.

Chin Strap Warnings

Must Be Used with CPAP: A chin strap is not a treatment for sleep apnea on its own. It must be used with a CPAP machine.

Possible Side Effects: Discomfort, jaw soreness, or skin irritation can occur. If the strap causes pain or breathing difficulties, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.
