Some of my teeth have sharp edges and I cut through most "cheaper" dental guards. Do you think my teeth will rip it?

I have not had any issues and I also have sharp teeth.I just have the stand one, but they also have a more durable one that might work better for you. So far so good with mine.

This is a hard plastic- not like the soft ones you find at the store. My husband grinds worse than I do, so he has that similar problem. So far, he has had zero issues with this guard.

The mouth guard is pretty thick and I would say this would not be a problem. Eventually normal use will require a replacement.

I don't think so. It's pretty sturdy, not soft like the guards you buy at WalMart or Walgreens. I bit through several of those $30 guards before I found these on Amazon. I think you will be very happy. Worth every penny.

I don't think so, at least not with Pro Form model. But I'm not a dentist. You might ask them via email.

I have sharp teeth also and it's still holding up nicely. Unless your name is Dracula you shouldn't have a problem.

My son has not cut through his. However, if you grind heavily, you might want to get the extra durable one.

I did not cut mine, but I would say that yes it would. A dog scratched a whole in mine and I noticed it hasn't really grown any larger but it's already stretched tight.

you should talk to your dentist. I think eventually your teeth will start shifting.

It would be really hard to cut. These bones are much harder than other types of chew bones such as rawhide.

Edges are sharp. I didn't cut myself, but was careful. It is thicker than aluminum foil so not quite as flexible and it could cause some cuts along the edges.

My guess would be yes... I only wear the upper guard at night. I do not see where an overbite would hamper the fit. It fits pretty snuggly on your teeth.

Yes you could,but I had a night guard that fit just on my front teeth, it cost over 500.00 dollars and worked greatly, but my dog got a hold of it and tore it up so I had to resort to this

They are metal, so I would think so, plus it seems like it could hurt your teeth or make them uncomfortable to chew.

Yes. My son uses the mouth guard to play basketball and has been hit numerous times and has had no problems with chipped or damaged teeth

Most definitely. I usually only grind my teeth at night unless I am REALLY stressed. Believe it or not, sometimes I forget to take the guard out right after getting out of bed. It is so comfortable. I have been wearing one guard for over a month now and it is still in great shape. But, you have to wash it thoroughly every morning and put it away in its little package to avoid germs and possible gum disease.

I don't think anyone here would be qualified to answer that question other than the lab itself. Your dentist should give you recommendations. As for the bite guard part of it for clenching and protecting your teeth, these do pretty well.

If you cram it full of *stuff* and it has a hard time grinding the teeth *might* snap off. They aren't the highest possible quality, so go easy on the thing and you won't have any issues.

Not usually. If you have an open cut it will sting a little, but so will anything at that point.

Yes, just get a metal cutting blade. Make sure you wear your safety goggles.

I have had dentist made night guards. When my dogs chewed my recently made guard, I did the do your own. I would try the Dentek products first. Be sure to read the directions several times before doing. It might take a couple times before it fits right. Be sure to talk to your dentist, first.

Yes, definitely. Just don't poke around too much that it will hurt your gums

That's the 2+2=4 answer I put together. nIf the strips work by just stretching your tissue (& the guy on Shark Tank said your body thinks it has to fill in spaces) then the mouth guard should work. We found one for under $3 at Academy, & I'm just starting to use it. We'll see...
