Someone should place an order for the new leadership of the Republican National Committee. If only there were a product for low foreheadedness…

Funny enough, i recently fell into the sleep apnea crowd. If you want a nose-only cpap feed -and- can’t keep your mouth closed while using it, they have a similar strap arrangement to keep your jaw in place. I’m guessing it is less material and higher cost than this one…
ETA: it’s velcro based fit (take THAT old timey solution!) but also meant to be disposable so… point to the old timer.

I use one of those. I don’t open my mouth a lot while sleeping, but enough to want it. Comfortable once you get used to it and bonus, it seems to help somehow with teeth grinding during sleep. My grind-guard hasn’t worn down as fast.
