MyoTape + Mandibular Advancement Devices
A complement to MAD therapy — not a replacement.
Oral appliances are an effective, well-tolerated therapy that fits easily into a person’s nightly routine from the very first night. They reposition the jaw to help hold the airway open — what they do not do is keep the lips together. Used alongside the appliance, MyoTape rests the lips gently closed and supports nasal breathing through the night.
10 reasons MyoTape sits well alongside MAD therapy
Not to replace your therapy — to help it work the way it's meant to.
It addresses a variable the device does not.
The MAD advances the jaw; MyoTape supports the lips staying gently closed, so nasal breathing is maintained through the night.
It surrounds your lips — it never seals your mouth shut.
A light elastic sits around the lips. The mouth is never covered, so the wearer can open it, talk or cough at any time. That open design is exactly why it is well tolerated.
That open design is exactly why it feels safe.
It complements the device — it does not replace it.
MyoTape is not a substitute for your device. It addresses lip closure, which the appliance was not designed to control. The device continues to be worn as prescribed.
Less mouth breathing, less dry mouth.
Open-mouth sleep dries everything out; keeping the lips gently closed supports nasal breathing. Many users report that the morning dry mouth simply settles.
Quieter, calmer nights.
An open mouth tends to mean more snoring and disruption. With the lips resting closed, many users — and their partners — report calmer nights.
It slots into the existing routine.
No new device, nothing to fit or adjust. One strip before bed, appliance in as normal — about ten seconds added to the routine.

Soft, hypoallergenic cotton and a skin-friendly, latex-free adhesive, made to be worn every night and peel away cleanly.

Common questions
Is it safe to use with an MAD
Yes. MyoTape is designed to work alongside an MAD. Due to the way the product works, the mouth can always be opened should teh person need to.
Will it seal the mouth shut?
No — and this is the question we get most. The elastic sits around the lips and gently encourages them to rest together. The mouth is never covered and never sealed, so the person stays in full control all night.
How will wearing MyoTape help a MAD wearer?
A mandibular advancement device advances the jaw to help hold the airway open, but it doesn't keep the lips together. Once the wearer is asleep, the mouth can drop open and breathing shifts back to the mouth — which is often when snoring and dry mouth return. MyoTape rests the lips gently closed, without sealing the mouth, so nasal breathing is supported through the night alongside the appliance. Users commonly report less snoring, less dry mouth and drooling, and calmer, more restful nights. It's a complement to the appliance, not a replacement and not a treatment for sleep apnoea, and the device continues to be worn exactly as prescribed.
What if my nose is blocked?
MyoTape works by encouraging nasal breathing, so it isn't suitable on nights when your nose is congested from a cold or allergies. If you have ongoing difficulty breathing through your nose, speak to your doctor before use.
How do I use it?
Insert your MAD as normal. Then take a strip of MyoTape. Peel one strip, stretch it slightly, and apply it horizontally around your lips with your mouth gently closed. In the morning, peel it away slowly. That's it — about ten seconds added to your routine.
