Comparison of Custom Night Guards vs. Store-Bought Options
Night guards are considered a conservative, non‑invasive way to manage bruxism and protect your smile over the long term.
Custom Night Guards vs. Store‑Bought
Type, Features & Limitations
Custom night guard > Made from a detailed impression of your teeth, provides a snug, comfortable fit, better durability, and more precise protection for your bite.
Boil‑and‑bite/stock guard > Generic fit, often bulkier, may shift during sleep, can be less comfortable and less effective for heavy grinders.
Custom night guards from a dentist in Phoenix’s Biltmore area are designed specifically for your bite and grinding pattern, which typically makes them easier to wear consistently and more effective over time.
