Mouth taping has become popular because it may help improve sleep and even benefit your skin. Here’s a simple overview of what it is, how it works, and some things to be cautious about. Tap to read!
Mouth taping is when you place a small piece of tape over your lips to encourage breathing through your nose while you sleep.
By keeping your mouth closed, mouth taping helps you breathe through your nose. This can improve how well you breathe in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
Mouth taping might also help your skin. Since it prevents mouth breathing (which can dry out your skin), it may help keep moisture in the airways, leading to healthier skin.
People with respiratory problems, like sleep apnea or nasal congestion, should be cautious when considering this method.
This information is general. It is advisable to talk to a healthcare professional before trying mouth taping.
