What sort of bite guard did you use? I clench my teeth like there's no tomorrow and I've discovered over the years that any bite guard that doesn't completely cover every tooth (on either the lower or upper arch) will eventually result in a supra-eruption of the exposed tooth, with drastic consequences for my bite.



Just one from the drugstore which you put in boiling water and then bite down on. It costs about $20.

It covers all the teeth on the top, but not the bottom.

My dentist said he could make one if that didn’t work out, but it did.

I’ve seen sketchy looking web sites by dentists who claim they can make something uniquely effective but it doesn’t look any different from the one I use so I don’t believe it.
