MYOTAPE does not cover the mouth. Instead, it surrounds the mouth, bringing the lips together with a light, elastic tension that helps to maintain lip closure and ensure nasal breathing. This elastic tension serves as a continuous reminder to keep the lips together. When you or your child open your mouth to breathe, the feeling of tension from the tape will prompt the mouth to close.
The tape is a training support, designed to restore nasal breathing patterns both during wakefulness and sleep. It allows the freedom to open the mouth at any time, and to communicate effectively whilst wearing the tape. To change behavioral patterns, it is recommended that the tape is worn for 60 to 90 days.

MYOTAPE is made using cotton and hypoallergenic, skin-friendly glue. The glue is Japanese-made, acrylic glue that is latex-free. Myotape is a gluten-free product.

MYOTAPE cannot be worn if you have facial hair – it must be applied to a shaven face.
