Mouth breathing can cause less oxygen to be delivered to the body and one of the problems this can cause is disturbed sleep and increased daytime fatigue and tiredness. It also causes the mouth to dry out, which in turn increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. There may also be an increased risk of upper airway infections as well as inflammation of the tonsils and adenoids. Nasal obstruction is a common reason for mouth breathing, often caused by nasal allergies or enlarged adenoids, those who experience regular nasal congestion, 64 percent are getting blocked noses. While one in three are getting runny noses, and 31 percent are even having sinus pressure and pain. Another 31 percent have found breathing difficult as a result.
