HONEYBULL Mouth Guard for Grinding Teeth, 1 Size for Light Grinding | Comfortable Custom Mouth Guard for Clenching Teeth at Night, Bruxism, Whitening Tray & Guard, 12 Pack - Thin

This is my third time purchasing the HONEYBULL Mouth Guard (6-Pack) because they work so well for me! They’re comfortable, easy to mold, and perfect for light grinding.A tip from my experience: The instructions suggest trimming before putting it in hot water, but I’ve found you shouldn’t trim first—once you place it in hot water for 20 seconds, it shrinks.Here’s how I do it for the best fit:1. I take it out of the hot water using a fork.2. The most important step: Keep it open and hold its shape as it cools slightly, so the ends don’t stick together.3. After about 30 seconds, when it’s safe to touch, I place it on my teeth.4. I bite down firmly but not too hard, while also using my fingers to shape it around my teeth.The whole process takes less than 3 minutes, and I get a perfect custom fit every time! Actually I did mess up on my first one, so practicing is the key.If you're looking for a thin, comfortable, and easy-to-mold mouth guard for light grinding or clenching, I highly recommend this one! I also appreciate that this product is BPA free.

I had been looking for a different set of mouth guards for bruxism due to a prior brand smelling like a plastic swamp on a recent purchase. These have almost no scent, and they seem to be made and cured properly. I have no idea how or why some of these products absolutely reek of plastic and chemicals, but I am not ever accepting a product again that does. It's not normal. Don't accept it.In store you are basically getting fleeced, paying upward of 15 bucks for ONE plastic or silicone guard. This is a great deal by that standard. They list silicone for these, but I am not quite sure what they are made from. It works much better than some of these store bought ones that claim to be made with vinyl or other chemicals. I shredded a couple of those ones in days from Walmart. These hold up quite well for the cost. I'd say I usually start to see degradation after a couple weeks, and these are still looking okay. I expect a guard to last about 2 weeks to 1 month for me personally, and that's why the 12 pack is such a huge issue.A lot of guards start to break apart, and you might be eating those bits if the deterioration becomes too much. Nobody in their right mind should pay 15 dollars for what amounts to a tiny bit of chemicals in a mold that will last two weeks. They are very easily made overseas or even in the US. That is why Honeybull is giving you 12 of them here. Because they are still making good profit. Now imagine the profit on selling 1 of these for basically the same price lol! And with worse quality!By their factory mold these do NOT fit in your mouth well. You NEED to trim these. In fact you need to TRIM ALL MOUTH GUARDS TO FIT YOUR UNIQUE MOUTH. I do NOT boil them but put them into hot water to get semi-molded. Use a small sauce pan for the least amount of water wasted. Never do 20 seconds of boiling water ever. It's complete overkill and almost always ruins or partially ruins the mold. You don't necessarily want a deformed mold that is softer than normal, as that will lead to degradation for many quickly. Just start with 5 seconds in not quite boiling water and go from there.These are big guards even for the slim version. Cut the back section of the guard off completely to your preference, and then trim the height so it fits in your mouth. Adjust as needed as you trim. I trim the front wall almost completely off. This is necessary so you can fit the entire guard in your mouth, close it, and sleep without drooling. What you are left with is basically more of a half piece guard, and this is EXACTLY what you need. You should be able to breathe and close your mouth completely with this guard in. Can't? You haven't trimmed your guard properly. Follow these directions and this guard will be absolute heaven at night. Minimal or no drool. Covers all relevant teeth. Nothing jutting in between your lips to crowbar your mouth open leading to drool on pillows.After a couple wears you barely notice them. I cut basically the entire mold to what amounts to a mostly flat tray in my mouth, leaving the centered tongue protector on. When I bite down most of the pressure is spread from the front to the middle, and the smaller guard works better because your mouth feels in a more natural state. Even when biting hard, a smaller guard should protect all teeth without needing a section to cover the back.I have severe bruxism at night, and this seems to be work best for me while allowing me to breathe and sleep on my side. One should be able to CLOSE their entire mouth without leaking on their side. If you cannot close your mouth with this in it and be comfortable, then you have NOT trimmed your guard properly. It's that simple.So far this is the best deal for mouth guards I have found. The silicone, or whatever, material seems to hold up quite well, though, slight degradation will get to it after a couple weeks like always. But so far they have kept a pretty smooth and robust appearance compared to some of the more useless and softer guards, which do not hold up for even a week.Lastly, I always soak my guard in some soap and water before use anyway. Just to get any gunk off that might be from the factory. That's about all you need to know for these mouth guards. I hope you find what you need. Bruxism sucks!

Very easy to mold. Fits great. I like that I can trim it down to the size I need. It’s comfortable and does its job of protecting my teeth. I did manage to grind through the first one just shy of 2 months of use - which is worse than the old mouthguard brand I used (could do 4 months with that one) but this still is more cost efficient even if I go through one a month.

These molded really well and I didn’t have pain from grinding or clenching my teeth so overall these worked, but if you have a smaller mouth like me I recommend buying the thin version. The thicker ones were too bulky and prevented me from closing my mouth when I slept and I stopped using them for that reason, but I’m getting the thin version so hopefully those work better. You also have to trim them down to fit your mouth which I was t a big fan of.
