Abstract
A mouth and lip shielding device includes an elongated malleable member having a first end and a second end. A headphone attachment mechanism is positioned along the first end of the elongated member and secures the device onto the boom swivel housing of a headset. A privacy panel is secured along the second end of the elongated member at a location adjacent to the headset microphone. The privacy panel is hingedly secured to the elongated member and transitions between a closed position for covering the mouth of a user, and an open position that does not cover the mouth of a user. The attachment mechanism permits the device to pivot up and down with an up and down movement of the headset microphone.
