Mouthpieces have become a common piece of clothing in our day to day lives for the obvious reasons which are to help us protect ourselves from this deadly coronavirus outbreak. They play a crucial part in shielding us from this virus to a considerable extent and are available these days in different shapes, styles and materials. Wearing them has become obligatory in many places just to avoid this contagious virus whose treatment and vaccine is still in process and is not there yet.

Mouthpieces have become a common piece of clothing in our day to day lives for the obvious reasons which are to help us protect ourselves from this deadly coronavirus outbreak. They play a crucial part in shielding us from this virus to a considerable extent.

As this virus is super contagious and it spreads so quickly, it’s better that we wear mouthpieces and carry sanitizers with us every time before we step out of our homes and go anywhere. These are the only things that have kept (and is still keeping) us away, and far from this deadly virus, as they shield us from the bacterial and viral particles present in the air. These mouthpieces can without a doubt reduce the extent of this outbreak, by creating a barrier, especially by helping people living in bustling cities and in close proximities.

There are different types of about which everybody should be aware of:

-Mouthpieces for everyday:

Some people use temporary mouthpieces (Mundbind 3-lags Type 2)made from fabrics and other materials for day to day activities like shopping, walking and so on. Although these temporary mouthpieces grant no protection from being infected, they somewhat reduce the risk of droplet transmission during exhalation. Thus, have no significant purpose in preventing the spread of the virus. As a result, they cannot be deemed suitable for their use in health care systems.

MNP mouthpiece:

MNP mouthpieces are generally used by medical staff and are commonly known as “surgical mouthpieces”. These mouthpieces are produced with the intention to provide protection against the infection, particularly against aerosols. They are suitable for everyday use like the ones mentioned above and are primarily used for protecting the patients.

-FFP2- mouthpiece (= face filtering piece)/N95-mouthpiece:

These are the ones which can be deemed or considered efficient for shielding users from the contagious virus. The person wearing them is considered much safer as these mouthpieces prevent 95% of the bacterial and viral particulates from entering their bodies while the person inhales.

-FFP3-mouthpiece Type 2:

These are an upgrade of FFP2 mouthpieces type (Mundbind type 2) and they provide 99% safety in comparison to former. It filters out most of the droplet as well as particles while breathing in.

As it can spread so quickly, its better that we wear mouthpieces every time and carry sanitizers with us before we step out of our homes and go anywhere. These are the only things that have kept us still away and far from this deadly virus, as they shield us from the bacterial and viral particulates present in the air.

Wearing a good quality mouthpiece and sanitizing after certain intervals is the only key to protect ourselves from this contagious virus that is spreading rapidly. So, go grab a quality mouthpiece without any further delay and keep yourself and your dear ones safe. Using them in crowded cities where there is a greater chance of getting infected is a great idea, most likely, to reduce the spread of virus spread droplets. Some may say that wearing a mouthpiece is giving people a false sense of security but it’s better to keep yourself guarded as well as shielded in this difficult time of pandemic than to take any chances that might introduce us to some unwanted and difficult situations. So, go grab a quality mouthpiece without any further delay and keep yourself and your dear ones safe.
