Mouthguard - One Size Fits All Premium Set of 6 BPA Free Moldable, Customizable and Trimmable Medical Grade Mouth Guard for Grinding Teeth Clenching Bruxism, Sport Athletic, Whitening Tray

I bought this mouth guard because the dentist said I was grinding my teeth at night. She suggested either a specially made on from the office or Lorious. I chose Lorious bc she said others had bought it and were satisfied and bc the price was VERY reasonable compared to the one from the office. As I was trying to follow the directions on how to make the form fit right I decided to text the help support. I am VERY glad I did. This person was so helpful and supportive. He even followed up on me a week later to see if everything was still good. He offered so many helpful hints. This is a fine product at a reasonable cost with some effort on your part to make it work. It's worth the try before spending $$$ on a specialized one.

To no surprise of my own (my friends have told me I have a big mouth for years), I found this was a little bit short on reaching my back teeth. I had anticipated this but wanted to try anyways as I grind my teeth a lot. The guard is usable, just produces an odd feeling in your mouth since some of the teeth will feel the pressure of being squeezed by the guard, while the back ones have no pressure. Something about it just creates an odd pressure profile in my mouth. I tend to grind my teeth after stressful days, so I only put this in on those evenings. If it felt a little bit more comfortable I would wear it every night. I rinse and rub the guard with my fingers to clean it and it smells fine and doesn't have any growths on it.The guard holds up pretty well so far, and the molding process was so easy as long as you follow the instructions and prepare for the cool down step ahead of time.

I randomly started to get mouth/jaw pain at age 30. I finally saw the dentist after 8 years of avoiding and got some fillings done. After that procedure, my mouth started to hurt and I would clench my jaw really bad. Probably also due to stress.....however, I was in so much pain from clenching my jaw at night that during the day I clenched my jaw trying to relieve the pain. I couldn't get an appointment with my dentist for over a month and I didn't want to be taking Tylenol and ibuprofen twice a day due to the pain. I knew that it was very bad for my liver, so I decided to take the matter in my own hands. If you don't have dental insurance, and have bruxism, these are great. It comes with a pack of a few, but I've only needed to do one so far and I'm saving the others for sports for my children or if I need a replacement. I boiled the water and follow the directions and made the mold. It works just fine, I had to trim a little because I have a small mouth but after 3 nights of using it, I wasn't clenching my jaw at night anymore (obviously) and so I wasn't clenching during the day and causing pain. This mouth guard was a life saver! I put it in my mouth every night and have ZERO problems drooling or breathing with it in. It really doesn't bother me what so ever. I was a little skeptical because of the reviews, but even if you screwed up and melted or damaged one of the mouth guards, there are extras just in case. I'm glad I didn't listen to the reviews and went ahead with the purchase. This totally saved my liver from taking over the counter pain medicine daily! I couldn't live like that anymore!

I just barely received this today. It didn't take long to read the instructions and get it molded. I tried a "dry" fit first to see how it felt prior to molding to my teeth. It was comfortable but felt big, of course, from not being molded. It extended all the way to the back of my mouth just barely past my back molar, which is what I wanted. I've been having pain in my molar all the way in the back on my jaw, and I believe it's from clenching/grinding while I sleep. After I molded it it doesn't cover the back molar entirely, due to the approx. 20% shrinkage explained in the instructions. It covers about 1/4 of that molar. I'm hoping that will be enough to offer protection from clenching. I wish after it shrunk it covered all my teeth all the way back. I only give it 3 stars right now because I haven't slept with it in yet, and I'm not sure it will resolve my problem. In addition to that I'm concerned about it not offering full coverage of my teeth.The instructions were pretty easy to follow. As you read it you get the impression with all the steps and tips that you have some time to do each step, but you really don't. Once the water is boiling, and you remove the pot from the burner, drop the guard in and count to 18 or wait until the walls start to curl then remove it with a large ice cold metal spoon. From that point the process takes about 30 seconds to finish. I tilted the spoon slightly to get the hot water out and carefully put the guard in my mouth. I created a vacuum in my mouth, as the instructions indicated, bit gently, but hard enough to create a tooth indent and pushed the walls on the inside up against the top of my mouth with my tongue. The I pushed my lips and cheeks against the guard to create impressions on the outside. I then dipped it in cold water (not really indicated in the instructions unless remolding) to solidify it. It has a nice tight fit. It still feels a bit bulky around the front of my teeth. It would be noticeable to people that I have a mouth guard in, but that's okay, I'm wearing it to bed, not to work.Update: I wore this to bed last night. For the first couple of minutes it was comfortable but after that it became annoyingly uncomfortable. It just felt too thick and annoyed my mouth. I had a hard time falling asleep with it, but I eventually did. I think it did help with my tooth pain. I didn't wake up in the middle of the night with a throbbing tooth ache, I actually woke up because my mouth was annoyed with having this guard in it. If I remember correctly the instruction booklet that comes with this has some tips to help adjust for that. I will try them out and see how it goes. All this being said I'd rather have this annoyance than the throbbing tooth. But it would be nice for it to feel comfortable all night long. I'll update again if I'm able to re-mold or adjust it to be comfortable all night long.
