<p>Sorry to hear this as it's quite a worry that you no longer have CPAP with your sleep apnoea being severe Christine, as you'll no doubt know the health risks of living with untreated sleep apnoea <a href="https://www.hope2sleep.co.uk/sleep-apnoea-information.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.hope2sleep.co.uk/sleep-apnoea-information.html</a> I just wish you'd found us when you were struggling with your CPAP so that we could have helped. Dry mouth is usually very easy to treat with a CPAP humidifier and very often things like the XyliMelts. In fact if you check out this webinar replay, my own talk is all about dry mouth as if you go with a mandibular device, dry mouth is a common problem with those too. </p>

<p>£750 for a mandibular device isn't expensive, but it's rare they treat severe ranges of sleep apnoea, although they can help improve the sleep apnoea and maybe take it into the moderate range. If you do go with a mandibular device we always recommend a repeat sleep study to see if the device is actually helping. If the hospital have discharged you then we do have a sleep study service at the charity on this link <a href="https://www.hope2sleep.co.uk/sleep-apnoea-home-screening-service.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.hope2sleep.co.uk/sleep-apnoea-home-screening-service.html</a></p>
<p>If you have a Facebook account we do have a Private Group there, where you're likely to get more responses from people who use or have tried mandibular devices so here's the link to join <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/SleepApnoeaSupportAndAwareness" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/groups/SleepApnoeaSupportAndAwareness</a></p>
