Find the Right CPAP Mask for a Better Night’s Sleep

Struggling with leaks, discomfort, or claustrophobia from your CPAP mask? The right fit can make all the difference. ResMed AirSense devices support a variety of mask types, including full-face, nasal, and nasal pillow masks, each designed for different sleep styles and breathing preferences.

Why Change Your Mask?

  • Comfort: Reduce irritation or claustrophobia.

  • Leaks: Improve therapy effectiveness.

  • Sleeping Style: Full-face for active sleepers, nasal pillows for side sleepers.

  • Breathing Preferences: Full-face for mouth breathers, nasal options for nose breathers.

  2. Attach the new mask and reconnect the tubing.
