Waking up with a dry mouth, bad breath, or low energy from poor sleep quality? You might be sleeping with your mouth open. This simple bad habit can not only dry out your mouth but also negatively affect your sleep, cardiovascular health, and stress levels.
Infused mouth tape can provide an easy solution to keep your mouth shut and promote nasal breathing while you sleep, while also caring for your skin health.
Unlike regular surgical tape or mouth strips, this tape is infused with ingredients that hydrate, refresh, and protect your skin like collagen and other anti-aging nutrients.
In this article, we’ll share all about how infused mouth tape works, how it compares to regular mouth tape, and what makes it worth trying.
What Is Infused Mouth Tape?
Infused mouth tape is an adhesive strip placed over your lips before bed. By gently sealing your mouth closed, it’s designed to help you breathe through your nose while you sleep, in order to support better oxygenation, reduced snoring, and improved sleep quality and oral health.
So, what makes infused mouth tape like Dream Mouth Tape Plus stand out from normal mouth tape? It’s packed with collagen, B vitamins, CoQ10, and Vitamin E to boost your skin’s elasticity and hydration, promoting a natural glow.
It’s also safe for sensitive skin, thanks to a hypoallergenic adhesive that’s strong enough to stay in place all night for uninterrupted benefits.
Ultimately, what kind of tape to use for mouth taping can vary depending on your individual goals and needs, but infused mouth tape is a great option for the above reasons.

How Infused Mouth Tape Works
Infused mouth tape works by gently sealing your lips shut with a soft, skin-safe, hypoallergenic adhesive.
This action encourages nasal breathing, your body’s most preferred breathing pathway, which helps improve the quality of your sleep, reduce snoring and stress, and support your overall health and well-being.
Infused mouth tape like Dream Recovery’s Mouth Tape Plus is infused with collagen, the primary structural protein found in your skin.
Unfortunately, after the age of 25, we start to lose about 1-2% of collagen each year. Collagen-saturated mouth tape helps to infuse your skin with this essential protein for better hydration and elasticity.
How long mouth taping takes to work will vary for each user. Some will see results on improved sleep in as little as a few days, while for skin benefits, these can start to show in a month or more of infused mouth taping.

Benefits of Infused Mouth Tape
-
Promotes nasal breathing
Using infused mouth tape prevents unhealthy mouth breathing, which helps to train your body to breathe through your nose.
Nasal breathing activates your parasympathetic nervous system, enhancing relaxation, which may help to boost REM sleep. (1)
Overall, nasal breathing is our body’s preferred breathing method and can therefore reduce snoring, boost your sleep quality, and improve your overall health and well-being.

-
Hydrates your lips & skin
Infused mouth tape contains collagen, the primary structural protein of skin that helps to maintain its elasticity and firmness, while also retaining more moisture to improve skin hydration for a youthful glow.
By providing your skin with extra collagen, collagen-infused mouth tape is designed to help hydrate your lips and reduce wrinkles while preventing unhealthy mouth breathing.
It also works as a great mouth tape for beards.
-
May reduce the symptoms of sleep apnea
Some research suggests that using mouth tape at night might help to reduce some of the symptoms of mild sleep apnea, such as snoring and the severity of apnea episodes. (2)
This is because mouth breathing can worsen obstructive sleep apnea by narrowing the airway and increasing the vibrations of soft tissues in the throat.
When it comes to choosing the best mouth tape to improve your sleep quality, you’ll need to ensure that the product is sturdy enough to stay on throughout the night and compatible with a CPAP machine if you use one as a part of your sleep apnea treatment.

Lowers stress levels
By promoting nasal breathing, infused mouth tape can help to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which switches off the “fight or flight” stress response.
Research shows that this may also help to lower blood pressure, in turn supporting cardiovascular health and promoting a calm mood. (3)
-
Promotes oral health and reduces bad breath
By keeping your mouth closed while you sleep, infused mouth tape works to promote better oral health while reducing bad breath.
This is because mouth breathing dries out your oral mucosal membranes due to the evaporation of saliva, which is essential to wash away odor-causing bacteria and food particles. (4)
-
Might improve jawline definition
Mouth breathing is associated with reduced jawline definition, especially if this unhealthy habit begins in childhood. So by promoting nasal breathing, infused mouth tape might help to improve facial aesthetics over the long term (if used consistently).
Many of our users have experienced positive results with mouth tape for facial shape and jawline changes.
