Does this work if I sleep with mouth open? I mainly have grinding problem before I fall asleep.

It seems to work for me. I have a grinding problem while sleeping, and I tend to snore (according to my wife). She says it has made me not snore as well.

Our products are same as dentist get, as we are a professional dental lab providing same products for dentist offices and the dentist offices don't make night guard themselves. But do note that each dental lab or dentist office use different material, technique and equipment. This night guard is for SEVERE teeth grinding. And if you follow our simple instruction and take the impression accurately, there should be problems with the fit or locking onto the teeth. Whether upper or lower is personal preference. If you have missing or loose tooth on upper part of your teeth, we'd suggest LOWER night guard. And vise versa for UPPER night guard.

In my experience, it starts to work within minutes of chewing. I keep it in the car and use it whenever I feel sleepy. It perks me right up.

My teeth hurt a little but I wouldn't say it lasts an hour. I have an appointment with my dentist in a few weeks and I plan on asking her opinion as to whether I am doing any damage or not. I am certainly sleeping better.

For me there was some dry mouth relief right away, with better results over time. I always experienced the most severe dry mouth overnight, so I would use this as a final rinse before bed.

I like the Dentek. It's my favorite mouth guard as you'll probably see in my review for the product. That said, it won't last long if you clench your teeth while grinding because you can bite through it. It's better for people like me who grind side-to-side for some reason. It does take a little practice to boil and bite down in the right place but it is super comfortable for me.

Depends. If you brush your tongue while brushing your teeth I find only one application works (most times). Drinking water before bed helps me a lot.

I did not have a problem grinding on the front teeth so can't comment on that. However it works very well for the back teeth.

Don't know but as it tends to hold open jaw slightly it may.there are mouthpieces made especially for snoring as they tend to force the lower jaw slightly forward to keep the windpipe open.try searching for these

Yes you can, it should work fine. However, I would suggest even thinking about investing in a more protective (expensive) mouthguard or one specifically molded by a dentist if you have that option.

It works that way for me. It is not loud but I have the ability to sleep through most disturbances. I find it soothing

I found out when using that the "quick" pushes are not as quick as one would think.I found out from someone who had it , that you push and hold a little once or twice and then the next push, you hear like a grinding sound.That is what you want to hear. I was pressing like 8times quickly(quickly as recomm)and hardly any fizz, it wasn't until hearing the grinding sound

Yes it does, however the rubber point spins so quickly that one tends to lose control of the device. Two handedly operating the device and keeping your lips shut over the device while polishing your teeth I find to be the only means to control the polisher. I too had reservation regarding its initial purchase, but I gambled to purchase it and although it was not what I had anticipated it to be; I have managed to adjust to what it does anddo so that best benefits me.

Yes it does! It will probably take a daily use of a week the once a month should do it. I however, don't drink coffee or tea so if you do, it may take a little more use. I get compliments all the time on how beautiful my teeth are................. and, I can leave it in all night while I sleep and have no problem at all

My experience has been varied. If I don;t have the device correctly placed, I will experience discomfort (pain) within an hour. If it is correctly placed, I can get several hours of wear. I have yet to precisely identify what is correct placement. Apparently, the tolerance envelope is very narrow. I make no attempt to use the device while sleeping, thinking that the body needs some downtime relief. My incontenance problem is minimal while sleeping

It works well in the daytime as well as during sleeping hours. Hold it between your gum and your cheek off to one side.

Yes. Even half a lozenge worked well. I take no medications that make my mouth dry. Sadly, I'm starting to sleep with my mouth open. I cannot speak to other causes of dry mouth. However, my aunt, who does take such meds, said she awoke with a wet pillow it worked so well. So they work.
