Customer Review: Great instructions, nice that it comes with two guards
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been using night guards for over 20 years, but this is the first time I've tried an off-the-shelf variety. I wasn't sure how they could compare to the expensive custom-fitted ones from the dentist -- but I've been wearing through the expensive ones way too fast lately!
The directions are very clear, which is nice. I've gone through this process to make mouthguards with my children for martial arts sparring, so I had a general idea how it worked. But it was nice to have such precise instructions. It comes with two guards, which don't seem all that different at first glance, but the larger one is more massive -- when you boil them, they keep their shape in the pot, but they get very soft and kind of sticky. So when you bite down on them, they can almost completely change their shape. The larger one thus has more plastic, or whatever, for forming a guard for a larger mouth/larger teeth (I used the small one). The nice thing about the forming process is that this stuff doesn't have that gelled-kerosene-like flavor of the molds the dentists use!
According to the instructions, you can re-boil the guard a couple of times without damage, so if you don't get it right the first time it's OK. Even so, my final product isn't as pretty as the custom ones, but I figure that even if I buy a couple of these a year, I'll come out ahead.
And I know, from many years of experience, that I'll sleep a LOT better with a guard in place. If you have grinding issues, it's worth a try! Do be sure you know what you are doing though, check with your doctor if you are concerned about TMJ (temporo-mandibular joint problems -- pain around your ears or your temples, for example -- this will prevent further wear and tear but not treat damage that has already occurred). Good luck and thanks for reading.
Update, a few months later: This one worked well enough, stayed in nicely and protected my jaws and teeth and helped me sleep better and all that, but it did get kind of worn out or chewed up inside. So I am trying the Archtek Grind Guard, which seems so far to be of a firmer "plastic" and which may hold up longer.

Description of Dental Hygiene Preferred Complete Day/Night Mouth Guard Kit, Colors may vary
As a Registered Dental Hygienist, this is the same model night guard I wear and recommend to my patients! Excessive grinding and clenching of the teeth can be extremely damaging. Premature failure of dental restorations, breakage of teeth and gum line recession are common problems associated with the grinding/clenching habit known as bruxism. In our dental practice we make custom fitted guards that sell for hundreds of dollars but we offer these as an alternative when cost is a concern. After trying dozens of OTC (over the counter) mouth guard models these have proven to be the best fitting most comfortable day/night brux/clench/grind guard. These will double as a sports mouth guard but are intended to be used as a protective device for people who grind and clench their teeth and are wanting a better more comfortable fit than a sports mouth guard can offer.Dental Protectors
