Sleep on your back. Or maybe your mouth is coming open because you can't breathe as well through your nose.

I don't know a cure but I do know what it feels like to do it. My husband teases me about it. Sleeping on your back is a good suggestion, I sleep on my stomach a lot. I just deal with the problem.

a chin splint as worn by some CPAP machine users may help to keep the mouth shut
