How to Determine If Your Night Guard Fits Properly

What Are the Signs of a Well-Fitting Night Guard?

Ensuring a proper fit for your night guard is crucial for effective protection. A well-fitting night guard should be snug against your teeth without causing discomfort. If you experience any pain or your night guard falls out during sleep, it may not fit correctly. Remi offers a personalized solution by providing custom-fitted night guards tailored to your dental impression for optimal comfort and protection.

Additionally, Remi's night guards are designed to minimize bulk while providing the necessary coverage. This means that, when inserted, the guard should not feel overly bulky in your mouth, and you should be able to close your mouth comfortably. By choosing Remi, you can rest assured that your night guard will fit accurately, as each one is crafted to the unique contours of your teeth.

How Can You Test the Fit of Your Custom Night Guard at Home?

Testing the fit of your night guard at home is straightforward. Begin by placing the night guard onto your upper teeth and gently biting down. The guard should lock in place without any sliding. Remi's custom night guards are created from your dental impressions, ensuring a secure fit that is specific to your dental structure.

For a thorough assessment, try speaking or drinking water while wearing the guard. A properly fitted night guard from Remi will allow you to carry out these activities with minimal interference, indicating that the fit is just right for your needs.

Can Adjustments Be Made to a Night Guard That Doesn't Fit?

Yes, adjustments can often be made to improve the fit of a night guard that doesn't feel right. For minor discrepancies, Remi provides instructions for at-home adjustments that can be safely executed to achieve a more comfortable fit. Always follow the guidance provided to avoid damaging the integrity of your custom night guard.

If after making adjustments, the fit is still not satisfactory, Remi's customer service is readily available to assist. They may recommend sending in a new impression to create a better-fitting night guard at no additional cost, showcasing their commitment to your comfort and satisfaction.

What Should You Do If Your Night Guard Causes Discomfort?

When you order from Remi, they prioritize your comfort by ensuring the night guard fits perfectly. They provide a detailed guide for confirming the fit and making adjustments, if necessary.
