Abstract: A sealed envelope or enclosure, shaped to fit a portion of the internal anatomy of the human mouth at a surgical site, said enclosure containing a non-toxic liquid or gel material capable of freezing to a semi-solid or solid state. The envelope may also contain a binder such as a sponge material or gauze impregnated with the liquid or gel material. The enclosure is placed in the mouth, to provide both pressure and cold, to reduce bleeding, swelling and pain after oral surgery or trauma.

Abstract: A method and device for stopping a person from snoring while sleeping including an elastic fabric panel, having adhesive covering one surface, the adhesive covered by a protective peel-off cover sheet. A narrow slit is cut through the panel near the center of the panel. The panel is adapted to fit tightly over the mouth and lips of the person, held by the adhesive to the face, preventing the mouth from opening while sleeping, which prevents snoring, but enables mouth breathing and talking.
