What's the best night gaurd for teeth grinding?

When I sleep I have to bite my tongue, cheek or my lip. I think I%26#039;ve been biting dorw and grinding them so much that I%26#039;ve loosened my filling on my upper teeth. I used to have a custom mouth guard but I would always bite harder and end up spitting it out. What is the best mouth guard you%26#039;ve tried?

What%26#039;s the best night gaurd for teeth grinding?
The %26#039;best%26#039; one would be a custom made one from your dentist. If it fits right, there won%26#039;t be any need for adhesive.





Good luck!

Reply:I grind my teeth and night and would constantly (obviously while sleeping) either spit my custom guard out or somehow pull it out.





It takes a LOT of getting used to but there is a solution. It sounds crazy, but denture cream. It%26#039;s not pretty but it works. Play around with the amount so you don%26#039;t make a huge mess. Spread a thin layer inside the part your teeth go and slide the guard on.





It%26#039;s virtually impossible to pull it out while you sleep. In the morning, a terry cloth towel will help you get rid of the residue on your teeth.





I have not tried the denture strips. Those might be a cleaner option.
Reply:well, i had to use one for a period but i dont grind my teeth at night and my dentist was just experimenting to see why my teeth are sensitive and the one i used made my teeth hurt soooo bad in the morning so ive never had one that worked well, lol
Reply:Some toothpastes claim to whiten teeth. There%26#039;s nothing wrong with using whitening toothpastes as long as they also contain fluoride and ingredients that fight plaque and tartar.
