Hello, I recently ordered a night guard for grinding my teeth from my dentist. I used it for one night, and I put it in tonight and it feels really loose, and feels like its falling out of my mouth... I was wondering if this is normal and if theres any way I can fix it? thanks.
Hi. Thanks for the query. Night guards are used to prevent the teeth from wearing away due to grinding. If it is loose then it can have further damaging effects on the teeth and gums. It is not normal for the night guard to get loose in a day only, and you should consult a Dentist and get evaluated. It will be better to get a custom-made night guard prepared as per the fit of the oral tissues, and then it will ft appropriately. For now avoid wearing the loose night guard. Hope this helps. Regards.
