[A simple bite protector for the laryngeal mask].
A new simple gag is presented securing the width of the tube of the laryngeal mask. The device is a 45 degrees-angled, u-shaped, synthetic-coated aluminium rod. This gag, while being additionally an aid to ensure the proper position of the laryngeal mask, is easy to handle and can be re-used after disinfection. Due to its rounded shape and the soft synthetic coating, accidental damage of the teeth seems to be nearly impossible.
