Night Guard for Women, TMJ Mouth Guard for Grinding Teeth at Night Jaw Clenching & Bruxism - Moldable Dental Night Guard for Teeth Grinding Mouth Guard for Sleep, 4 x Nightguard 2 x Sizes

Ever since I was 2 years old (according to my mother) I have ground my teeth in my sleep. By the time I was in my late 20's I had a dentist tell me I had ground my back molars down so much that I had the molars of an 80 year old. Later I had another dentist totally insult me by yelling at me saying I had psychological problems! He said "You need to see a counselor and get help, there's SOME reason why you grind your teeth every night!" I was watching his assistant cringing in the corner as he screamed at me and then I asked "Did I have psychological problems when I was 2? Because my mom said I've been grinding my teeth in the night ever since I was 2 years old."Anyway, lately (now that I'm in my late 50's) my jaw has been getting so bad that it's popping and hurting and I can hardly open my mouth wide enough to put food in it. I even woke up one night to my own grinding and found I was chipping my own eye tooth! When you grind at night it's not always just molars on molars, we grind also sideways toward the front and it wears on the third teeth from the front (the Canine / Cuspid on top and bottom). That's what I was doing when I woke up one night and felt chips of tooth in my mouth. So I called a specialist and found there was on one "Board Certified Specialist" in Peoria, IL and one in Chicago, IL. I made an appointment at the one in Chicago since it was cheaper up front, not requiring xrays (they take cash only) but I ABSOLUTELY HAD to do something to hold me over until I could see her so I found this.I am a very petite person with small bones. My wrist alone is super small. I am 5'4" and I weight 104. So I thought this "Sleepette" (smaller purple one instead of the large clear one) would be perfect. Fortunately they give you 3 small AND 3 large ones in the package. At first I read and re-read the instructions. Since I had no food themometer I used the instructions on how to do it without one and used the timer on my phone so it worked great. As for timing the seconds needed for the guard to soak, etc., my bathroom clock tics loud enough I could easily count that while keeping an eye on the guard as it started to curl. I don't know how anyone could watch a timer / clock and the curling guard in the hot water at the same time. You have to be quick about sucking the air out of it while pushing on the inside with your tongue and pushing on the outside, and biting down but NOT too hard... so it's complicated but it worked. However, once I had it done and went to bed that night, I realized it was a bit too small so that my very back teeth were not touching. It had shrunk up too much to be useful for anyone except a smaller child.At that point I knew I could get out of bed and do the process again with the bigger one to have better results - even though the large one seemed HUGE, it really does shrink down well and that's the one I've been wearing at night. Each day so far, my jaw has been feeling better and better and less pain or popping. I am EXTREMELY grateful to have this. I used to have one my dentist made that was hard and also served as a retainer for my top teeth but I outgrew it. That really is the best kind and worked for many years. It's called "Crystal Clear" and is supposed to be one of the best since it is hard AND is made in a lab to be graduated so it allows all of your teeth to touch evenly and grind evenly at the same time. However, it used to cost $300 and now it costs over $600 so this was my cheaper option at the moment since I need to save my money for paying the specialist.I truly believe that more people grind their teeth than know it and everyone would benefit from some kind of a night guard to be safe. I'll get much more educated on it once I see the specialist in a few weeks and can decide if I need to go back to a more expensive, professionally-made, hard guard, but in the meantime, this has been a real life saver. And I LOVE the fact they give you 3 of each size so you can practice if you need to or make another guard or two. That was extremely kind and thoughtful of the company to do! Hopefully I can learn some proper exercises to do that will help my jaw as well. I hope to be able to eat well for many years to come and I was afraid lately I was ruining my jaw from all of the grinding. Also, in my case I thought it might be tricky because I currently have 4 Zirconia Dental Implants that do not have caps on them yet (just the studs) and I am missing a couple molars on one side. But this molded nicely around everything and works well. Plus I have extras to make later if I get more dental work done and it doesn't fit. I also read somewhere that it's possible to re-heat and re-do the mouth guard, so if I need to re-do it in the future, I might start with trying that before I use another new one.Sweet dreams, and I hope this review had been helpful!

Excellent product, comes with 3 of each size to practice and easy to follow instructions. Saved me from having to spend $800 to get one made at the dentist. Love that it's a mother daughter company, they clearly care about the customer. As a bonus, the purple is super pretty!

I love this and how easy the instructions are to understand, amd even how easy it is to follow and manipulate the material, but I can't use them :( I tried to extend them and shape them to cover my whole jaw, but the last couple molars are left out at the back, and I clench my teeth when I sleep. This makes it so that my molars rest lower than my other teeth when I wake up (which isn't permanent, just uncomfortable and disconcerting) until my teeth eventually shift back into position (with the help of some gentle pressure). If you ever decide to make ones that are about 3/4 [Three Fourths] an inch longer, maybe you could brand them as extended or trim-able ones or something, please let me know, I would love to try again❤️

It was really easy to mold to my teeth, which was nice and super convenient. I got it because I’ve been clenching my teeth in my sleep, but I’m not loving it. The mouth guard is kind of thin, so it doesn’t really help much with the clenching. Might work for someone else, but not really cutting it for me.

This kit is everything. I've never had a mouth guard before and this kit was perfect for a beginner like me. I clench my teeth in my sleep, so bad that my dentist said my front teeth are getting loose so he recommended I try a mouth guard. The instructions were very simple to understand. My practice guard turned out perfect and fits tight to my teeth. It took no time to do. Feels comfortable enough, not too bulky. I like that it included 2 sizes. The smaller one was best for me and they even give you an extra one of each size to practice on. So there are a total of 6 in this kit. The little case is cute and it comes with stickers to decorate it and make it a little more fun. There is also a booklet of tips to actually help with bruxism. I used it last night and it didnt cause me any problems. I did wake up and my back top teeth that weren't covered by the guard were kinda sore but maybe my mouth is just getting used to it? Idk but like 30 seconds later it was fine. Time will tell about the quality and durability, but I will update if I run into any issues!

DO NOT BUY THIS. I am a very intense nighttime clencher and tried this nightguard to save money and I seriously regret it. Unlike the ones I get from my dentist, these are a softer material which gradually caused my molars to shift with all the clenching I do at night and now my bite is even worse. Going to have to spend a lotttt more money now to fix it. Don’t make the same mistake I did!!!
