Good questions.
Short answers.
01What is the MundFix, and does it work with every CPAP mask?
What is the MundFix, and does it work with every CPAP mask?
The MundFix is a soft supportive band for the neck: it holds the jaw gently up, so that the mouth stays closed during sleep and does not draw attention. It is worn on the outside, blocks no air supply through the nose and affects no mask technology. That is why it works together with all common nasal and full-face masks.
02Is the MundFix a chin strap?
Is the MundFix a chin strap?
No. A classic chin strap runs over the top of the head and pulls the lower jaw backwards from above; many people experience that as a pull on the jaw joint. The MundFix is a neck band: it sits around the neck, supports the jaw from below and thereby holds it gently up. No band over the head, no seam on the face, no pull on the mask. Anyone who could not get on with a chin strap is exactly the person the MundFix was made for.
03How does it sit correctly?
How does it sit correctly?
Before going to bed, place the band loosely around the neck and close the hook-and-loop fastening so that it supports the jaw gently from below. It should sit close, not constrict — there should be room for one finger between the band and the neck. After the first night you will have the fit; it becomes meaningful from the second or third night onwards.
04What is the MundFix made of?
What is the MundFix made of?
The MundFix is a memory foam neck band: highly elastic memory foam with polyester and silicone, elastic, dimensionally stable and perforated, and therefore breathable and kind to the skin. Latex-free, so it also suits sensitive skin. It is closed with an infinitely adjustable hook-and-loop fastening, without buckles or metal parts. One size for neck circumferences from 32 to 46 cm, band 47 cm long, 9.5 cm high, around 50 grams light.
05How long does a MundFix last?
How long does a MundFix last?
With daily use and normal care we recommend replacing it after about 6 months. Many customers use it for longer. Wear shows above all in the elasticity of the band.
06Is it washable?

Yes, by hand at 30 °C with mild soap. Not in the washing machine, not in the tumble dryer. Air dry, no fabric softener.
07Which colour if I do not want to stand out?

Grey or black are the discreet versions. Pink and turquoise are popular with couples who deliberately wear different colours.
08Is the MundFix a medical device?
