      Yeah crazy. My dentist made one for me at only $45 for the soft one. My new dentist costs 900 for hard on the outside/soft inside guard.

    Thank you for this. I was just about to cut the back molar area of a mouth guard i just got, but now I won't. I tried it last night for the first time and can't keep it in because it's uncomfortable, maybe hurts my teeth, and makes me gag

    How do you make mold with mouth guard when your missing back teeth😊

    • @DanScottChannel

      Mold it to the teeth you have, then trim the mouthpiece with a scissors and or razor knife. Use a Dremel or fine sandpaper to smooth any rough edges.

    Is there a preference on the hard dental guard over the soft one?

    • @SoutheastFamilyDental

      Thank you for your question! The hard vs soft guard depends on what you need. A soft guard is mainly used for someone who is exclusively clenching or grinding. A hard guard is used when someone has pain or clicking in their jaw joint or clenches/grinds so hard they chew through a soft guard. Speak with your dentist about which one is best for you!
