Product Details

Oracle 452 Oral CPAP Mask by Fisher & Paykel

Introducing the Oracle 452, Fisher & Paykel's unique oral CPAP face mask. The Oracle 452 Oral Mask delivers pressure through your mouth instead of your nose, providing ideal therapy for mouth-breathers and users who are sick, or those who suffer from nasal obstruction and cannot use or do not like nasal masks, nasal pillows, or full-face masks. The comfortable Oracle CPAP mask does not obstruct your eyes, allowing you a clear field of vision when you use this product.

Comfortable Oral Face Mask is Easy to Use
Setting up your Oracle 452 Oral CPAP Mask is a breeze. Simply place the mouthpiece, which comes in two different sizes (small and large) for your convenience, behind your lips and in front of your teeth. Then, fit the outside flap into the mouthpiece, and then fold it over your lips. This should keep the device in place without touching or blocking your tongue. Removing the Oracle is easy as well: Just pull the Easy-Release Cord to take your mask off.

Quiet Air Diffusion
This may be an oral face mask, but that doesn't make it any louder. In fact, Fisher and Paykel designed the Oracle 452 to be a quiet CPAP mask. The Oracle 452 Oral CPAP Mask comes with a filter to stifle noise, and exhalation holes near the elbow of the device to help diffuse air away from you and your partner.

Single Strap Headgear
Tired of obtrusive, uncomfortable, and invasive headgear? The Oracle's single-strap headgear is small and lightweight, wrapping around your neck at chin height. With just one strap, the rest of your face is unobstructed, and you'll have zero vision impairment with this CPAP mask. This works great if you do not like too much headgear and hardware on your face.

Rotating Adjustment Dial
If you've ever felt frustrated by your inability to properly adjust your CPAP mask, fear not. Fisher and Paykel have developed an innovative and much-welcomed solution for those who just can't quite get their mask to fit: a rotating adjustment dial. The dial can be literally rotated, letting you tighten or loosen the fit between the headgear strap and the mouthpiece. Simply slide your fingers up and down the dial to adjust the fit - just be sure to maintain proper pressure on the dial as you move it!

Note: The Oracle CPAP mask comes with nose plugs which help users acclimate to mouth breathing during sleep.

FAQ

Do I have to use the nasal plugs?
No, but we recommend that you use them while you adjust to the mask. If you breathe primarily through your mouth, or if you suffer from chronic nasal congestion, the nose plugs will probably not be necessary.

Do I need a heated humidifier with the Oracle mask?
Yes, you'll really want to use heated humidification with the Oracle 452 Oral CPAP Mask. More so than with most masks, you'll wake up with an excessively dry mouth if you don't use a humidifier.

Can I use any CPAP machine with the Oracle mask?
Yes, the Oracle 452 Oral CPAP Mask is compatible with all CPAP and BiPAP machines except the ResMed AirMini.

The ad does not tell you that you must block your nose (at least at first) to use this. It came with 2 sizes of nostril plugs (neither of which worked). I bought a nose clip (for swimming) and it is most uncomfortable.

Question

Do u bill Humana

Answer

Sorry no, you would need to contact your insurance regarding coverage or reimbursement first before placing an order with us as we cannot bill insurance directly.

Be sure to confirm with your insurance company these questions:
1. Do you accept a paper claim?
2. What documentation will I need to send with my claim?
3. Will I need to add any modifiers to my claim?
4. May I purchase the CPAP machine and still have it covered?
5. Is Respshop in-network or will I be paying out of pocket for this claim?

Question

If you choose to use the oral Cpap device, do you lose the advantage if nitrous oxide gained by nasal breathing? Are there known health disadvantages?

Answer

The mask does come with nasal plugs, however, they may not work for everyone and may cause some discomfort. I am unaware of any health disadvantages. If you would like a mask that covers the mouth but also has the ability to direct air into the nose, we have those options as well.

Question

I am a grinder and I use a top night guard, would I be able to use the oral mask? Thank you🙂

Answer

You may have some difficulty using this mask or it may work fine... it really depends on individual factors and you would need to try it to find out. We do have a mask exchange policy so you can always exchange it for another one.
