Duct Tape!  Place one end on the head board then go under the chin, back up to the head board.  That way you stay on our back & keep the mouth closed as well as don't hurt the shoulders.

Sleeping with my mouth open, I have a dry mouth every night, all year.

I put a chunk of a sugar-free cough drop under my tongue before falling asleep.  It is surprisingly effective. I don't use a whole cough drop - I break them into two or three large pieces with a pair of pliers.

To the group: Has anyone ever experienced a very dry mouth, especially through the night and in the morning.  Also, last night my arms were hurting me so badly, and I have not been anywhere but hom.  Especially from my elbow to my wrist.  I have a knot under the skin on both arms in that area.  They were worse last night & this morn. but today they were some better, after all I ended up taking a pain pill.  This has never occurred so badly.  I've been noticing the mouth, but not the arms, til last night.  Natalie M.
