Collection: Compensators

Improve your ergonomics, protect your teeth, and extend the lifespan of your equipment with our specialized selection of mouthpiece patches for woodwind instruments. The patch (also called a mouthpiece protector or cushion) is a critical adhesive pad placed on the top surface of the mouthpiece. Its function is threefold: it completely absorbs annoying vibrations transmitted to the upper incisors while playing, prevents the pressure of the teeth from leaving marks or cracking the ebonite, plastic, or crystal, and provides a non-slip support point that stabilizes the embouchure. If you are looking to buy mouthpiece patches that guarantee maximum comfort and durability, our specialized online store has a rigorous catalog.

Our permanent stock includes a wide variety of thicknesses, materials, and shapes to adapt to the anatomical and acoustic preferences of each musician. We have rubber or soft silicone patches in thick gauges (such as 0.8 mm), ideal for beginning students or musicians seeking maximum cushioning and pressure relief. For professional clarinetists and saxophonists who prioritize maintaining a natural embouchure opening and direct harmonic transmission, we offer thin Teflon or clear plastic patches (0.35 mm or less) with high wear resistance. All our models feature food-grade sanitary adhesives that leave no residue upon removal and fit clarinet (Bb, E-flat, bass) and saxophone (soprano, alto, tenor, baritone) mouthpieces.
