No, not at all. I heard it first from a dentist and its quite common, well more common than would be expected. Its also perfectly safe, if your nose becomes congested you rip it off in your sleep.

It fixed my apnoea and chronic sinus issues. Seems I was constantly developing nasal polyps from mouth breathing all night.

Here is a dentist recommending mouth taping:

Thanks, that's really interesting. I might try it, if I can figure out how to keep my mustache and beard intact :)
Also have a mustache and beard. Just ordered https://smile.amazon.com/Sleep-Strips-SomniFix-Breathing-Nig... . We'll see how it goes. Still sounds insane but hey, It's easy enough to try.
Awesome, give a it few days to adjust to. Its common to wake up and find your tore it off on your sleep and its suck on your pillow or forehead :)

Just keep putting it on at night, and before you know it you will wake up in the morning and have completely forget you still have it on.
