How to Force open a mouth?

Forcing open someone's mouth can be a dangerous and harmful procedure and should only be performed by trained medical professionals in specific situations such as medical emergencies or examinations. If you are not a trained medical professional, you should not attempt to force open someone's mouth.

Here are some steps that medical professionals may follow when they need to force open someone's mouth.

1. Jaw Thrust: This is a commonly performed technique.

- Place one hand on the forehead of the person and firmly tilt their head back to extend the neck.

- With your other hand, grasp their lower jaw and gently push it down and away from their nose, opening their mouth.

2. Mouth Hook / Wedge:

- Insert a mouth hook or a wedge-shaped object between the back molars on the side where the mouth needs to be opened.

- Gently pry open the mouth to separate the upper and lower jaws.

3. Oropharyngeal Airway:

- Insert an oropharyngeal airway (a curved plastic tube) into the person's mouth and past the tongue to maintain an open airway.

Again, it's important to note that these procedures should be performed by trained professionals in appropriate medical settings. Do not attempt to force open someone's mouth without their consent or proper medical training.
