A laryngoscope with pressure sensitive blade including a removable polymeric section disposed for engagement against a patients maxillary incisors during intubation, said polymeric section including a rubberlike upper surface for placement against said patients teeth, and an undersurface disposed in contact with the laryngoscope, wherein a pressure sensor disposed upon the polymeric section undersurface signals pressure exerted atop the upper surface by means of an illuminable signal, said illuminable signal emitting a first color when pressure is sensed atop the polymeric section, and alternately a second color when said pressure is sensed exceeding a pressure threshold.
