You can get one of these for pretty cheap. They're not going to last as long as one from a dental office, and won't fit quite as tight but it works the exact same way.
My dentist told me to buy a mouthguard online because they're just as effective as custom made ones. There are two types I have experience with, the melty kind and the minimalist kind.
The melty kind you feel more but it's formed to your body so it's not that intrusive, the minimalist kind fits in your mouth better but doesn't conform and I find myself chewing on them more, also some of the reviews say that they woke up to almost swallowing them (I've never had this happen), so decide which one will be best for you. I prefer the minimal ones.
Take hot baths and lay flat, I usually cross my legs or rest my feet on the end of the tub so that my back is flat on the bottom, the heat will help hour muscles relax. I also have a jade facial roller or (slow but much cheaper
) which works especially well when it's been warmed up, I have better luck using that for my facial/jaw massages than just my hands.
Huh, maybe it was the brand? Mine was very thick and sturdy, and I followed the instructions quite closely. I don't think mine is sticky at all. They do feel weird in your mouth...but they all do. :P I used a smaller size (my package had four mouthguards in two sizes) and it fit best. Did take a couple hours to get used to it, so I put it in a while before bed to get used to it.
Mine was like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01JNH3XFO/ref=zg_bs_3764091_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=FKCPMR8VC8QYWFYF0QB3
Edit: also if you haven't been tested for it, ask about sleep apnea. Apparently 1 in 4 people with sleep apnea grind their teeth (I believe, maybe it's backwards and 1 in 4 people who grind their teeth have sleep apnea) so it's worth checking it out.
I don't have sleep apnea, I've been tested 3 times. I unfortunately just have health issues that cause the muscles all over my body to spasm all night. Sigh.
Hey man, just to follow up on this. I wound up making a mouth guard for night wear and it has helped a LOT. Almost zero jaw pain, no clicking/etc now. It took about two weeks of wear to get to this point.
In my case, my dentist found that my bite caused my jaw to pull a mm or two out of alignment when I clenched my teeth. If I did it a lot at night, I would invariable wake up with a sore, strained jaw. The trick for fixing that was to create a mouth guard with a smooth top so that my upper and lower teeth could not lock into place.
To do this, I ordered this mouth guard:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JNH3XFO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
When I was molding it, I used a plastic credit card to put on top of it as I bit down so that biting down wouldn't put a tooth impression on the top of it. This helped create a smooth top to the lower guard while it was fitted to my mouth.
$16 and it works perfectly vs. $800 that my dentist wanted to make me one.
Amazon
Check amazon for a cheap one to hold you over
you should be able to get custom fit for one by your dentist, but honestly i bought a $15 set on amazon that you boil and fit to your teeth yourself and i love it. i also have a bad gag reflex but this guard doesn’t bother me.
