Anti-Toothbreaker: A Novel Low-Budget Device Enabling Contactless Dental Protection and a Forbidden Technique during Direct Laryngoscopy for Endotracheal Intubation.

The Anti-Toothbreaker is a novel, reusable low-budget device which might not only provide contactless dental protection during direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal intubation, but also enables, in contrast to established tooth protectors, active levering with conventional laryngoscopes for easier visualization of the glottis. Future human cadaveric studies are needed to investigate whether these advantages also prove themselves there.
