Question: Is it normal to sleep with your'e mouth open.?
and does this cause snoring.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Yes it is normal, because your need for oxygen is "turned down" so your body just breathes in very lightly through the nose or mouth.

Snoring is not caused by this.
Snoring is caused by a loose flap in your throat, where it directs air from the nose or mouth, and it "flappers" around when you're asleep and breathing heavily.
it is possible to snore with your mouth closed.

For really noisy snorers, they have invented a "staple" to help keep the flap from making the noise. I forgot what the exact terms were... but i know it exists cause i wanted my dad to get it lolHealth Question & Answer

Most children and adults who sleep with their mouth open usually have a cold or flu with a stuffy nose, sinus problems, allergies, deviated septum, sleep apnea, tonsil or adenoid problems.

Some snore occasionally, some all the time, and some don't snore at all.

See your physician if you sleep with your mouth open so they can determine if you have one of these problems.Health Question & Answer
