Answer 2

I HAVE NOT TRID but being dentist i will advise you to start wid it if u ahve night time grinding problem coz nite time grindin or bruxism,,,is to grind the teeth,clenching of the teeth associated with forceful jaw movement...resulting in rubbing,grinding or gritting together of teeth usually during sleep.....

THE DAMAGE WHICH MAY OCCUR ARE-
1) wearing of the teeth

2) breaking of the teeth

3) sensitive teeth

4) receding gum or teeth with gum line notches....

5)loose teeth

6)periodontal pockets

7)bony ridges

8)cheek irritation

9)sore muscle

11)tmj problem

NIGHTGUARD NIGHTGUARD
It would be logical to think that an acrylic nightguard is simply a piece of plastic used to cover and prevent the teeth from coming together while sleeping at night. This is true - BUT - most importantly, when in place it provides a correct bite so that muscles will relax and problems in a persons bite will not trigger the bruxing action.. The aspect of making and delivering a nightguard CORRECTLY is difficult to explain but you may see this process by clicking here. A point needs to be made that tooth wear still slowly occurs when using a nightguard. The reason for this is that a person (especially severe bruxers) will clench and very slightly grind during the day time when their guard is not being worn.

so don worry go ahead wid da nite guard...no problem for sure....
