The oral device comprises a mouthpiece. A gas inlet conduit, a gas outlet conduit, and a fluid outlet conduit are adjacent to the vestibular portion of the mouthpiece. The gas inlet conduit may be used to provide oxygen to the mouth of a patient. The gas outlet conduit may be used to remove end-tidal carbon dioxide from the mouth of a patient. The fluid outlet conduit may be used to remove fluid from the mouth of a patient. The oral device may also include a tongue stabilizer to minimize movement of the tongue. The mouthpiece may include fluid outlet ports to remove fluid from the mouth of a patient and an instrument passage to allow medical instruments to pass through the oral device.
