What is the best type of night guard for teeth grinding?

For several years, I have worn a hard plastic night guard on my top teeth for grinding while I sleep. I just went to a new dentist and he only makes soft plastic ones for bottom teeth. I want to know if one kind is better than the other and why?





My big concern is that a bottom one will push against my top teeth and cause them to shift since it will be an extra layer between my top and bottom teeth.

Your dentist knows which guard to use.. they are properly fit to make sure you don%26#039;t harm your teeth or bite .


dont use one just from walmart that is a sports guard.


if you are unsure of how well the guard is working or if it is and you also have more questions about it, call your dentist and present him with your worries and questions, Im sure he can cure your doubts.


hope this helps.
Reply:If Tyrone was in your position, he would find out the reason for the teeth grinding. In most cases, it%26#039;s worms and parasites in the colon. He would get a professional colonic from a trained hydrotherapist.





Tyrone would also invest in a home kit to get rid of parasites with a colon cleansing kit.








Tyrone would also drink fresh juices like onion, and carrot and promagranite and prune juices.
Reply:the soft ones may not last as long... you may eventually chew on them, but the are more gentle on your teeth.
Reply:If your teeth shift is because of the grinding and you will not wear them all day and night only when you sleep. SO it won%26#039;t matter if they shift for a while. But the soft ones are better because you teeth can because it%26#039;s limited movement because they are custom made for you teeth. So use the ones that the dentist gave you.
Reply:Actually, as about a Splint. Those are the guards that stop you from grinding period. I am going to be getting on next month. They mold to your top teeth.
Reply:soft plastic will work
