Description

tape, and reinforced with a mouth prop in order to keep it in the proper place (Fig. 1A). Pushing the tube with a finger into the oral vestibule and the retrodental space opposite to the treatment site would make it possible to examine and transfer the patient’s occlusion (Fig. 1B). Because of the flexibility of the tube, either dislodgement of the mask part or obstruction of the tube part could occur. Therefore, vigorous monitoring with capnography throughout the treatment will be required. Packing gauze into the pharynx can prevent the dislodgement of the mask part.
