Do you clench your jaw and grind your teeth during the night? Have you noticed you wake up with a sore jaw or that the enamel at the top of your bottom teeth is slowly wearing down? Teeth grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism, can lead to more serious problems like cracked teeth and cavities.
The best way to prevent damage from bruxism is to wear a night guard at night. Many people think these night guards will be clunky, but with a custom teeth night guard, you can get an inconspicuous clear night guard that molds perfectly to your teeth. Ordering a custom night guard online is easy.
Visit this site to learn more about the three-step process to ordering a night guard:
Step One: Order a Night Guard Kit
To order a custom dental night guard kit, you can simply place an order online, and like any other website, provide your shipping and billing information to have the kit sent directly to your home. You’ll receive a pre-paid envelope to return the kit.
Custom teeth night guards are available in different thicknesses and materials, so you will want to choose the kit that works best for your situation. Most people choose medium density or thicker night guards to prevent grinding. You’ll also want to choose a material that isn’t too soft or thin to bite through or too hard or thick to be uncomfortable. You may choose a harder material to have your night guard function as a teeth retainer and prevent your teeth from moving or shifting.
Step Two: Take Your Own Impression and Mail the Kit
When you receive the kit, you’ll open it and find two impression trays and impression putty to take your own dental imprint. You’ll select the right sized tray for your mouth, mix the putty, and put it in the tray. You’ll carefully place the tray in your mouth and hold still for three minutes. Rinse it under cold water, and that’s it! Remove the tray, place it in the pre-paid envelope, and send it back.
Step Three: Receive Your Custom Dental Night Guard
You’ll receive your custom teeth night guard in the mail with a carrying case. This night guard will fit perfectly and comfortably to your teeth. You should wear it nightly for the best results.
Although the process works well 97% of the time, if there was an error with your impression, you might find the guard does not fit well. There are ways to contact the company and make another impression.
Skip the Dentist and Receive a Custom Fit
Ordering a custom teeth night guard online and receiving your own impression kit is an excellent choice. Not only is it easier, but it’s also more affordable than going to the dentist for the same impression process. You can get cheaper guards from the pharmacy that claim to mold to your mouth, but they may not be the right size and they’re much lower quality. Order online and have a reputable company make a high-quality night guard that will last and give you a comfortable sleep experience without jaw pain.
