Abstract

An endotracheal tube (10) having an integral bite protector portion (18) wherein at least this portion of the body of the tube is adaptable to be in contact with a user's teeth. This portion being made of a bite resistant polymeric material with sufficient rigidity to prevent collapse, puncture or permanent deformity due to clenching by a user. The portion does not require reinforcing materials or only uses fibrous reinforcing materials, and does not use metallic materials for reinforcement.
