Medicom Confidence is the medical-brand option in our ASTM Level 3 mask range — the line clinics, dental offices, and smaller healthcare facilities specify when procurement programs require a named medical brand. The 10-box case (500 masks) is sized for operations where a 40-box bulk case would sit in storage too long, and the Medicom name carries weight in healthcare procurement that generic brands don't.
Why a Named Medical Brand Matters
For most facilities, ASTM Level 3 certification is the spec that matters — barrier performance is comparable across compliant brands. But some operations have procurement programs that specifically require named medical brands for traceability, audit compliance, or reimbursement. Medicom is one of the most recognized names in medical-grade ear-loop masks; specifying Medicom Confidence satisfies those requirements where a generic ASTM Level 3 mask wouldn't.
10-Box Case Sizing
500 masks per case (50 × 10 boxes) is sized for smaller operations: dental offices, single-doctor clinics, smaller food-service operations, and any facility where the bulk Intco 40-box case would take months to consume. For a single dental practice issuing 20–30 masks per day, a Medicom case lasts roughly 3–4 weeks. For a small clinic at higher volume, 1–2 weeks. When a case is going to outlast the practical shelf-rotation window, the smaller pack is the right choice.
3-Ply Construction, Soft Ear Loops
Like all ASTM Level 3 masks, Medicom Confidence is three-layer: hydrophobic outer layer (fluid splash resistance), middle filter layer (particle and bacterial filtration), soft inner layer (skin contact). The adjustable nose bridge supports a proper seal; the soft ear loops are designed for extended wear without ear discomfort. Latex-free throughout.
Confidence vs Other Medicom Lines
Medicom's Confidence is the standard ear-loop line at Level 3. Medicom also produces tied-back and N95 masks; this product is specifically the ear-loop Confidence Level 3 (the most common procurement specification for general medical use).

Frequently Asked Questions
Why pick Medicom over Intco?
Two reasons. First: case size. Medicom at 10 boxes (500 masks) is sized for smaller operations where a 40-box bulk case would outlast the practical shelf-rotation window. Second: brand requirement. Some procurement programs require named medical brands for traceability, audit compliance, or reimbursement — Medicom satisfies those where a generic ASTM Level 3 mask wouldn't.
What's the difference in performance vs Intco?
Both are ASTM Level 3 — the certification standard means filtration, fluid resistance, and breathability are all tested to the same threshold. Practical performance is comparable. The choice between Medicom and Intco is about case size and brand-name procurement requirements, not barrier performance.
Are these the right masks for dental practice?
Yes — Medicom Confidence Level 3 is widely used in dental practice. ASTM Level 3 is the appropriate barrier rating for procedures involving fluid splash and aerosol generation. The 10-box case is appropriately sized for single-practice consumption.
What's in a case?
50 masks per box, 10 boxes per case (500 masks total). Roughly 3–4 weeks of supply for a dental practice at 20–30 masks/day; 1–2 weeks for a higher-volume clinic.
Are they latex-free?
Yes — latex-free including the ear loops, appropriate for environments where latex is restricted and for users with latex allergies.
Can I order Medicom alongside other supplies?
Yes — mix-and-match wholesale ordering. Combine masks with <a href='advancare-nitrile.html' style='color:var(--accent);'>AdvanCare medical nitrile gloves</a>, <a href='bouffant-pleated-blue.html' style='color:var(--accent);'>bouffant caps</a>, or any other medical-grade PPE on a single shipment.
