Respiratoorsest

Respiratoorsest is a term that combines "respiration" and "toothrest," referring to a device designed to assist with breathing during dental procedures. It is particularly useful for patients who have difficulty breathing or are at risk of aspiration during dental work. The device is typically a small, flexible tube that is placed in the patient's mouth and connected to a vacuum system. The vacuum creates a negative pressure, which helps to draw air into the lungs and prevent the patient from inhaling any dental materials or fluids. Respiratoorsest can be used in various dental settings, including general dentistry, orthodontics, and oral surgery. It is an important tool for ensuring patient safety and comfort during dental procedures.
