Mouth breather?: It is not that uncommon for someone to sleep with their mouth open, but if there is some type of breathing disorder, then it should be checked. Is your gum tissue inflamed or sore around the upper front teeth? Extra thick tissue in the back of the throat, obesity, meds, supplements, sleep position. If questions, i would see a doctor.
