DenTek Consolation-Match Dental Guard For Nighttime Enamel Grinding, Consolation-Match Guard, 2 depend(Pack of 1)

This One Is A Keeper
I had a night guard made by my dentist. It was for the 6 upper front teeth only. Boy did that thing do a number to my jaw. My NEW dentist told me that it was because my teeth were not able to come together at night it caused my jaw to go out of alignment and I’ve had bite issues ever since :/ After paying hundreds of dollars for that fiasco, and using up my “one every five years” dental coverage, I purchased the full mouth DenTek (this one https://www.amazon.com/Dentek-Professional-Maximum-Protection-Dental/dp/B008YEMVSI/ref=sr_1_15_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1483981143&sr=8-15&keywords=night+guards). It was ok. I didn’t really care for it much. While I was able to put my teeth together, my mouth never really closed shut all the way because it was so big. Because my mouth didn’t close all the way I ended up with very dry, yucky mouth by morning. It was so bad I was actually sleeping without the guard. I think it even encouraged my grinding because it was so big and just…THERE and gave me something to grind and grind and clench and clench. It started to come apart (the grinding “plate” and the molded teeth part) less than 7 months later.Looking for an alternative I found this little guard. OMG I LOVE this guard!!!! I push this thing to the smallest available position, pop it on the bottom, and I’m off to snoring land. My mouth closes, I hardly know it’s in there at all. As others have said it does rub the right side of my lower gum just a tad but I just adjust the plate to sit a little bit towards the front of my mouth on that side. Yep I was also worried about swallowing this thing…that won’t ever happen.The box contains TWO guards too. So maybe it won’t last as long as the other (been wearing it about a month now) but I’m ok with that! There are two lol. I love this one so much I’m thinking about ordering 4-5 more boxes just in case they ever discontinue this guard…that is my luck!Updated review: I came back to order another two and I read some other reviews. I want to thank the person who said they use the Plackers Grind No More disposable guards. I ordered those. I thought these guards were awesome but the Plackers are WAY better. There is zero rubbing. I put the Plackers guards on top which I love so much better than the bottom (like these). Plackers are also a little smaller. I know they say the Plackers are disposable but I’ve been wearing 1 for over a week. I just rinse my mouth, with the guard in it, in the morning with Listerine, then I rinse and dry the guard. So far working great. So after trying a professional guard, a mold myself guard, the dentek guards and now the Plackers guards…Plackers, Plackers, Plackers

Works great after cutting a bit with scissors
I have a wide jaw and I was worried this wouldn’t fit. It does fit and there is a lot of adjustability. The instructions are good and it’s every easy to use. Just rinse it in warm water and adjust to your size. It feels pretty good, but it does trigger a gag reflex for me. The way it rubs against the sides of my tongue makes me gag and I have to take a break. So, I will work on it and try to get comfortable. I think I need to press my tongue against the roof of my mouth and keep my tongue away from the pads.Update: I kept gagging, so I tried cutting down the sides of the pads. Now it works really well! I slept great last night while wearing this. It’s not 100% comfortable, but I’m happy enough and it’s protecting my teeth from grinding.

This is the best mouthguard I have used in the past 5 years (Dentek Comfort Fit). It is honestly a relief. I have tried half a dozen other types. I mostly clench not grind. I will update this review when I have more experience (used only twice so far). I hope below is a helpful summary of my experience so far.I would generally NOT recommend boil and bite mouthguards. Many of them are enormous and therefore very uncomfortable. Even in the case of thinner types, they do not necessarily apply pressure evenly across the teeth. I often woken up with pain on my front teeth or molars. Some can ride high on the gums and rub against them causing discomfort. Because they are made from a relatively soft material, they can engage the chew muscles, amplifying pressure on the teeth enormously. Not good.There are other types varieties similar to the Dentek Comfort Fit. I used the Plackers Grind No More for years. Unfortunately, they are made of a similar soft plastic material and can engage the chew muscles. Because they are not adjustable (like the Comfort Fit) they ended up applying pressure for years across a very specific set of molar teeth eventually causing pain there. I had to stop using them.The Comfort Fit seem to solve these three problems. They are very small and thin. The bite area is made of a harder material than the other options, and do not engage the bite down reflex. They are adjustable, so I am able to place the bite guard area exactly on the most teeth comfortable teeth. They seem a little expensive for what they are, but if they are comfortable and last a full year – it’ll be worth it!

This filmsy thing doesn’t stay in place. Can never be used while sleeping.
