I use a thick material plaster across my mouth and make sure my nose is clear. I have the tendency to open my mouth when asleep but this has stopped this. I wake up feeling a lot fresher and my mental clarity improves. I can tell when I've breathed through my mouth as i tend to yawn nonstop throughout the day and feel down. Last night i didn't wake up once and had those crazy dreams before i woke up with a wet mouth, unlike the dry mouth you get from having your mouth open all night.

It is well documented that mouth-breathing adults are more likely to experience sleep-disordered breathing, fatigue, decreased productivity and poorer quality of life than those who nasal-breathe.

Unfortunately, it has been noted that there is a lack of awareness regarding the negative impact of airway obstruction via mouth breathing on normal facial growth and physiologic health; and as a result, may be confused for (ADD) and hyperactivity. 14 According to the National Sleep Foundation, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is linked to a variety of sleep problems. Children and adults behave differently as a result of sleepiness. Adults usually become sluggish when tired while children tend to overcompensate and speed up. For this reason, sleep deprivation is sometimes confused with ADHD in children. Children may also be moody, emotionally explosive, and/or aggressive as a result of sleepiness. In a study involving 2,463 children aged 6-15, children with sleep problems were more likely to be inattentive, hyperactive, impulsive, and display oppositional behaviors.
