I've tried other mouth tapes that left a considerable amount of residue when removed. The Respire tape does not do that. Its far easier to remove. It is also smaller than the other tapes I've tried. It covers completely without being too wide. I'll continue to use them. I'm a lifelong mouth breather at night and i was a bit nervous to try it out. I'm so glad I did! No more waking up to a dried out mouth and throat.
