Quality Seal Prevents Therapy Disruptions-No Headgear Required

The TAP PAP CPAP Mask is a unique sleep device that breaks away from traditional cpap mask technology with its innovative mouthpiece, providing a new take on nasal pillow CPAP therapy. After softening in hot water, the TAP oral appliance adjusts to the size, shape, and overall dental structure, giving you a just-right fit.

There’s no bulky headgear (though if you'd like it, TAP PAP does offer optional headgear) needed with the TAP PAP-simply attach the molded mouthpiece to the frame and adjust the alignment of the mouthpiece and nasal pillows for a secure seal to begin your oral appliance therapy.

Experience Fewer Therapy Disruptions with Innovative Exhalation Port Placement

The holes on the mask frame distribute exhaled air evenly and quietly for even better sleep therapy success.

Premium Features Offer Flexibility and Ease

Sleepers who naturally toss and turn unlock more freedom and flexibility with the two-piece rotating ball and socket joint on the TAP PAP tube. Plus, the connection between the joint and hose makes pausing or resuming PAP therapy a snap.

Offers the Stability and Comfort of Your Dreams

Lighter and more comfortable than its precursory model, the TAP PAP mask features nasal pillows in multiple sizes without compromising stability. The nasal pillow masks are made with a thin, soft polymer that is more comfortable on your skin, while the mouthpiece offers uncompromised support by securing on your upper teeth.

Adaptive Design Maintains Proper Fit

Use the nut and bolt joint to make adjustments to the fit and seal of your mouth guard. Once set, this strapless sleep apnea treatment requires very few adjustments.

Care of the TAP PAP:

• The TAP PAP should be rinsed with cold water after each use. Allow it to dry out of direct sunlight.
• The nasal pillows and mask components should be washed each week in lukewarm water with mild soap. The manufacturer suggests using a soft toothbrush to scrub the mouthpiece. Rinse completely and allow to air dry out of direct sunlight.
• If the TAP PAP headgear is used it should be hand washed each week. Use a mild soap, rinse it well and allow to dry out of direct sunlight.
• DO NOT wash any of the mask parts or the headgear in a washing machine or dishwasher. Use only mild soap that does not contain moisturizer, antibacterial agents, alcohol or bleach.

Where do I find the size?

The mask frame does not have an identifiable size because it offers a universal fit to each of the TAP PAP nasal pillows.

The nasal pillow size is found by removing the pillow from the mask frame. Hold the nasal pillow with the small opening facing upward. Look near the bottom of the pillow to locate the words, "S M A L L," "M E D I U M," or "L A R G E," which are embossed on the base ring. You can find the size on either nasal pillow.

Fitting and Adjusting the TAP PAP:

• Unsure where to start? Check out the TAP PAP Fitting Guide to help get your sleep apnea therapy underway.
• New to wearing a mouthpiece? Adjusting to a mouthpiece may take a few days. You’ll need to allow for extra time to become accustomed to it.
• Mouthpiece feeling tight? The TAP PAP mouthpiece should be a comfortably snug fit. To loosen the fit of the mouthpiece, hold the mouthpiece under hot tap water for 15 seconds and re-insert. Rather than sucking against the mouthpiece, gently bite on it for approximately 4 minutes. The fit will loosen around the teeth.
• Need the mouthpiece wider or narrower? Hold the mouthpiece under warm water and spread or narrow the spacing.
• Pillows position not quite right? Adjust the alignment of the nasal pillows and mouthpiece using the bolt and screw.
• Leaks around the nasal pillows? Fit the mask while under pressure with the air flowing from the machine. Move the mask away from your nose as much as you can without it leaking. Because the stability mouthpiece of the TAP PAP keeps the pillows in place you will find it can be tightened less than a regular mask and still seal. Rotation of the seals to achieve a good seal or change nasal pillow sizes.
• Mouthpiece fit do-over? To completely remold the mouthpiece, repeat the boiled water steps.
