Dental injury is the most common complication of general anesthesia and accounts for ~25% of the available closed insurance claims against anesthesia providers reviewed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists’ Professional Liability Committee. It is also the most common reason for litigation against anesthesiologists.

QuickGuard is low cost, simple solution that dramatically reduces the possibility of dental damage and costly insurance claims.

​​Patients are getting older and most have expensive dental work. Teeth can be damaged very easily. The risk of dental injury is higher in these patients as esthetic restorations are difficult to distinguish from the natural tooth.

​

  • Front upper teeth can be fragile or missing.

  • Front upper teeth can have expensive implants.

  • Porcelain veneers and crowns are very common.

  • Bridges are expensive and painful to replace.

  • Cavities or fillings on edges of teeth are brittle and can become damaged requiring a crown.

Fifteen seconds to soften.
Fifteen seconds to harden.

Simple and cost effective.

​

  • Quickly creates a protective barrier  between teeth.

  • Eliminates dental damage that occurs during intubation.

  • Protect fragile front teeth and cosmetic veneers.

  • QuickGuard can be easily molded by the patient.

  • Can be molded to protect fragile areas with missing teeth

  • Simple to reheat and remold as needed.

  • BPA-free and latex-free

 

Eliminate costly and time consuming insurance claims.

Protects against costly instrument damage caused by teeth.

Individualized tooth protectors have the greatest adaptability and are the most effective way of protecting the teeth.

The clinical performance claims presented on this website are based on published, peer-reviewed scientific literature and other supporting evidence where cited. References to a reduction in post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) risk from up to 40% to less than 1% reflect outcomes reported in published studies comparing cutting (traumatic) spinal needles with the Gertie Marx Spinal Needle or other specified study devices, as applicable. The reported incidence of up to 40% is derived from published literature describing cutting spinal needles and should not be interpreted as applying to atraumatic spinal needles. Nothing on this website should be construed as representing that all spinal needles perform equivalently or that identical clinical outcomes will be achieved in every patient or clinical setting. Individual clinical outcomes may vary depending on patient characteristics, practitioner technique, practitioner experience, and other procedural factors.
