Yes, sleep apnea is associated with bruxism. I couldn’t tolerate cpap, sleeping on my tummy or side helps some.

What type of mask were you using? I find the nasal pillows to pretty comfortable. Also, was your machine and auto-titrating CPAP? That helps alot

i think i tried nasal pillows. not auto-titrating. Probably didn't give it enough time to get adjusted... but my sleep is better now anyway.
