Just in today’s time the acquisition of a mouth guard mask is urgently necessary, in order to protect itself and above all other persons against germs and viruses. Nowadays, however, there are different masks you can choose between. For example, a fabric mask, a surgical mask, or even an FFP2 mask can be considered for use.
To make the decision easier for you, we have created a suitable checklist for you, which informs you about the individual mask types. Don’t forget to check out our great product recommendations afterward. There you will find many different face masks.
- Surgical masks (OR masks) are commonly used in the medical field.
- Another variant is particle-filtering respirators, abbreviated as FFP (Filtering Face Piece) masks.
- These particle-filtering respirators include FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3 masks, as well as N95 and KN95masks.
- Surgical masks primarily protect the environment from pathogens, rather than the wearer himself.
- They consist of several layers of fleece or cellulose.
- They are disposable products that must be disposed of after they have been worn once.
- Surgical masks are divided into two types.
- Type I masks must filter at least 95 percent of all bacteria from the air.
- Type II masks must filter at least 98 percent of pathogens from the air breathed. They are generally suitable for use in the operating room and medical areas with similar requirements.
- Surgicalmasks must bear the CE mark for medical devices on the packaging.
- FFP masks are available with and without a breathing valve.
- FFP masks without a breathing valve filter the inhaled and exhaled air and thus provide infection protection for the environment and the wearer.
- FFP masks with a breathing valve only filter the inhaled air and therefore only protect the wearer.
- FFP masks are also disposable products.
- There are three types of FFP masks, which differ in their filtering performance. All filter particles up to a size of 6 nanometers from the air.
- The filtering performance of FFP1 masks must be at least 80 percent, for FFP2 masks at least 94 percent, and FFP3 masks must filter at least 99 percent of all particles from the air.
- The packaging and FFP mask must bear the CE mark together with the test number.
- Class N95 (U.S. standard) and KN95 (Chinese standard) particle-filtering respirators are equivalent to European FFP2 masks but are not tested to European standards. They filter at least 95 percent of all non-oily particles from the air.
- Mouth masks are usually fastened behind the earswith an elastic band.
- For optimal filtering performance, the edges of the mouthguards should fit as close to the face as possible.
- Moldable nose clips make it easier to adjust the mask to your own face shape.

FAQ Mouthguards Masks
A mouth guard mask is worn over the mouth and is usually intended to adequately protect yourself, but also other people from germs and viruses. It is attached to a strap and is worn behind the ears.
FFP masks have the best filtering performance. However, for your own production of everyday masks can be used self-purchased fabrics for sewing. A pure cotton fabric is usually recommended, as it can also be washed at up to 90 degrees.
Prices depend on the manufacturer and model. In general, a mouth protection mask is available from most manufacturers for about 1 euro per piece. However, FFP masks with particularly strong filtering performance compared to everyday masks can cost more.
A mouth guard mask should fit snugly, but at the same time not constrict you. Adjustable nose clips allow you to put the mask on optimally. Many masks also have specific loops that allow you to adjust the length of the strap individually.
Most face masks are disposable products, so you should not use them several times in a row. Otherwise, it may lose its protective effect after a certain time. In addition, wearing the mask several times is also very unhygienic, because you usually sweat under the mask and bacteria can accumulate after a certain time.
Generally there are surgical masks, fabric masks and FFP1 or FFP2 masks. Currently, however, self-sewn fabric masks may not be worn in everyday life, as they do not guarantee sufficient protection.
Many people who wear glasses often complain that their glasses constantly fog up because of the mask. Therefore, certain anti-fogging sprays are available in stores or on the Internet, which ensure that your glasses no longer obstruct your vision. There are also mask chains or neck holders for the mouthguard, so that the mask fits better.
There are two different types of surgical masks. Type I filters 95 percent of bacteria from the air, while Type II filters 98 percent of viruses. FFP3 masks, on the other hand, can filter 99 percent of bacteria from the air. However, the FFP2 mask, which filters at least 94 percent, is the most common.
If you want to use the face mask several times, you should disinfect it properly and, if possible, heat it for 30 minutes at 70 degrees in the oven. This is the best way to kill viruses. FFP2 masks, on the other hand, must not be washed in the washing machine or heated in the microwave.
A face mask must always have a CE mark and the corresponding test number. You can also find this information on the packaging of the mask.
