Benefits of technology

[0016]3. The water-absorbent layer is extending from the bottom edge to half the area of the mask body approximately. In other words, all the upper half of the mask body is highly breathable. This makes it possible for the patient to smoothly and comfortably breathe with the mask on.
[0017]4. Because the isolation layer can be a breathable filter fabric or a meshed fabric which is not water absorbent, the water-absorbent layer can be isolated with the isolation layer. As a result, the water-absorbent layer can be prevented from direct contact with the patient's face. This can keep the patient dry and clean.
[0018]5. Because the water-repellent layer, isolation layer and water-absorbent layer jointly for

fourth embodiment

[0048]FIG. 9 shows the invention. The water-absorbent layer 13 is disposed extending from the bottom edge 15 of the mask body 1 to three-fifths of the total area approximately. Thus, the water-absorbent layer 13 can surround the patient's mouth to enhance water absorption.

fifth embodiment

[0049]FIG. 10 shows the invention. The water-absorbent layer 13 is formed with an aperture 131 over the opening 10. The aperture 131 corresponds to a patient's nose. Thus, the portion of the mask body 1 which corresponds to the patient's nose is highly breathable to keep breathing smooth, and the water-absorbent layer 13 can surround the patient's mouth to enhance water absorption.

sixth embodiment

[0050]FIG. 11 shows the invention. The water-repellent layer 11, isolation layer 12 and water-absorbent layer 13 can be formed pleats 16 of any shapes and folded as a planar. Thus, a dentist can treat the patient's mouth through the opening 10 and the water-absorbent layer 13 will absorb the liquid flowing or splashing out.

[0051]FIGS. 12 and 13 show a seventh embodiment and an eighth embodiment of the invention. The mask further includes a filter layer 14. The filter layer 14 is disposed between the water-repellent layer 11 and the water-absorbent layer 13 or between the isolation layer 12 and the water-absorbent layer 13. The filter layer 14 is a breathable fabric. The water-repellent layer 11, the isolation layer 12, the water-absorbent layer 13 and the filter layer 14 jointly form pleats 16. The filter layer 14 can purify air breathed by the patient to prevent the patient from infection.

Abstract

A medical oral treatment face mask includes a mask body and a band set. The mask body includes a water-repellent layer, an isolation layer and a water-absorbent layer. The isolation layer, which along with the water-repellent layer has a corresponding opening. The water-absorbent layer is arranged between the water-repellent layer and the isolation layer. The band set is fixed on two sides of the mask body.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The invention relates to face masks, particularly to medical oral treatment face masks.[0003]2. Related Art[0004]Oral treatment is a recognized international specialty in dentistry. It includes the diagnosis, surgical and related treatment of diseases, injuries and defects involving both the functional and esthetic aspects of the hard and soft tissues of the head, mouth, teeth, gums, jaws and neck.[0005]Oral treatment as a specialty is usually defined as a dental specialty. When a patient is being treated, he or she must open his or her mouth to be checked and operated by a dentist. A liquid suction tube also has to be put in the patient's mouth to drain out saliva, blood and swarf.[0006]However, water injected from a dental water jet or the patient's saliva can easily splash or flow out. This may make the patient feel uncomfortable and may stain the patient's clothing.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0007]An object of the invention i...
