Our Tips for Using Nasal Masks for CPAP Therapy & Their Benefits

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder where the upper airways get obstructed, leading to an intermittent stopping of breathing during sleep.

It involves the use of a CPAP mask which is connected to a small machine that pumps air into the user’s airway. One of the most important parts of the treatment is finding the right mask. In fact, being able to find a mask that is comfortable and has a good seal can make a great difference in how likely you are to succeed with CPAP therapy.

Our Tips for Choosing Reliable and Efficient Battery Powered Toothbrushes

We all know the importance of brushing our teeth. However, despite our best efforts, sometimes we may not be brushing them as thoroughly as we would like to. This is because the bristles on manual toothbrushes cannot reach deep enough to remove all the plaque and tartar that’s built up between our teeth. A battery-powered toothbrush’s rotating head features bristles that can reach further thanks to the combination of motion and equal pressure from the brush itself. This makes battery-powered toothbrushes the perfect tool to fight gingivitis and gum disease.
