Behind the Mask The Science of Porter Nasal Masks

1. Behind the Mask: The Science of Porter Nasal Behind the Mask: The Science of Porter Nasal Masks Masks What are porter nasal masks? Porter nasal mask, or Porter SILHOUETTE Nasal Masks, are single-patient nasal masks and breathing circuits designed with lightweight tubing and comfortable and conforming masks. The design of these masks provides maximum comfort for the patient and allows a dentist unfettered access to a patient’s oral cavity. The masks are single-use to improve infection control in the practice and come in many sizes to fit many faces. The design of the Porter SILHOUETTE nasal mask has features that offer many advantages over traditional dental nasal masks. They offer unobstructed access to the oral cavity, have adhesive strips that secure the mask in place, provide a more predictable nitrous experience, are disposable for improved infection control, have enhanced scavenging efficiency for reduced N2O exposure, come in four sizes for a perfect fit on all patients, and are easily retrofit to most flowmeters. The SILHOUETTE nasal mask invention The Porter SILHOUETTE nasal mask is an invention of Dr. Robert Guyette, who was a leading oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Phoenix. Dr. Guyette was concerned that the available N2O and oxygen nasal

2. masks made it difficult to access the oral cavity during dental procedures and were oftentimes uncomfortable for patients. Aware of the foregoing challenges that N2O and oxygen nasal masks presented to patients, Dr. Guyette embarked on extensive research that yielded an ingenious solution: a dental nasal mask that is anatomic, low-profile, and lightweight. The science behind the invented mask makes it characteristically fit comfortably over a patient’s nose, thus providing excellent access to all areas of the patient’s mouth. The nearly invisible dental nasal mask creates a safe and predictable experience for both the medical practitioner and the patient. Unveiling of Dr. Guyette’s revolutionary nasal mask First launched in 2015, Dr. Guyette’s revolutionary dental nasal mask has changed the view of nitrous in dental practices the world over. That is because it has set a standard for low-profile nasal masks, even for conventional oxygen masks. In fact, research has established how inhalation sedation with N2O using Porter SILHOUETTE nasal masks results in effective sedation, with increased patient comfort and parental acceptance of their children’s dental treatment under sedation. Why you need to switch to using the Porter SILHOUETTE nasal masks It has aptly been argued that the effectiveness and safety of any medical system, including sedation systems, strongly depend on the equipment designs and the operators’ skills. It is no secret that the use of nonscavenged dental nasal mask designs results in the leakage of excess ambient nitrous gas into the surroundings. It is noteworthy to point out that occupational exposure to N2O gas results in the incidence of liver disease, spontaneous abortions, renal lithiasis, and neurological diseases. You do not want to experience these or have your medical team experience them because of your failure to take precautionary measures when using dental nasal masks. Also keep in mind that studies have confirmed reduced fertility with occupational exposure to nonscavenged delivery of N2O gas for 5 or more hours a week. How the case was before the invention of the SILHOUETTE nasal masks

3. Prior to Dr. Guyette’s invention of the Porter SILHOUETTE nasal mask, conventional scavenged nasal masks were bigger in size, with an improper fit that led to gas leakages and also made the upper region of the mouth inaccessible during oral treatments. While the scavenged nasal mask designs reduced the ambient N2O exposure, Dr. Guyette’s invention pushes the limits by eliminating all the drawbacks for sedation effectiveness. The Porter SILHOUETTE nasal mask is underpinned by a host of scientific principles that result in breathing circuits with clear, thick, transparent, and lightweight tubing, as well as comfortable and conforming masks.
