@sleepy Hi sleepy, thank you for opening this discussion. Let me tag some other members who can possibly share their experiences with you.
Hi everyone, have you noticed that your teeth have shifted after wearing your CPAP mask? Is this common? What should @sleepy do about it?

I just started using my CPAP machine so it is too early to tell.

I've never had such problems with my CPAP, but I observed that my teeth became yellow. Does anyone know how to make them white again? :D

Hey there! I've also experienced some discoloration with my teeth while using a CPAP machine. It's frustrating when we're trying to improve our health and end up with unexpected side effects. As for whitening teeth, I recommend checking out afterva.com. They have an article that explains some effective ways to brighten your smile, including natural remedies and professional treatments. It's definitely worth a read if you're looking to improve the appearance of your teeth.

I noticed a month after using my CPAP Phillips Dream Wisp mask my teeth moving . It has been 3 months now and I have a noticeable gap between my two front teeth and a bottom tooth that sticks out now. I went to my dentist today and he told me it would keep happening and I am getting retainers to wear at night to stop further movement of teeth. But, it will not correct what has already happened. I dont think this is common at all and I don't even wear the mask all night long.

I haven't personally experienced it, it's not uncommon for some people to notice teeth shifting or changes in their bite while using CPAP.

Hi, I've noticed in the past few months of using my CPAP (Philips Dreamstation) that my teeth appear to have shifted... Has anyone else had that happen? I'm a little concerned about it...
Thanks for any replies.
