Why Custom Night Guards Are Preferred Over OTC Mouth Guards

Custom Night Guards vs. OTC Mouth Guards: A Comprehensive Comparison of Performance and Fit

What Makes Custom Night Guards a Better Choice Than OTC Options?

Custom night guards, like those offered by Remi, are designed to fit the unique contours of an individual's mouth, ensuring a more comfortable and effective protection against teeth grinding during sleep. Over-the-counter (OTC) mouth guards typically come in a one-size-fits-all design or a "boil and bite" model that may not provide the precise fit necessary for utmost comfort and functionality.

Remi's benefits extend beyond just the perfect fit—they also utilize professional-grade materials that are durable and long-lasting. With a focus on customer convenience, Remi delivers these personalized night guards directly to your door, saving you the time and cost associated with visiting a dental office.

Why Are Personalized Night Guards Recommended by Dentists Over Store-Bought Ones?

Dentists frequently recommend personalized night guards, like Remi's, over store-bought versions because they are specifically tailored to the individual's dental anatomy and needs. This customization can significantly reduce the risk of gum irritation and discomfort typically associated with ill-fitting OTC guards.

Moreover, Remi stands out by providing a dental-grade solution that includes a dental impression kit. This ensures that your custom night guard matches your bite accurately, delivering not only comfort but also superior protection against bruxism—that is, teeth grinding or clenching—which OTC options may not adequately address.

How Do Custom Night Guards from Remi Enhance Sleep Quality Compared to OTC Mouth Guards?

Custom night guards from Remi are crafted to provide an optimal fit, which is crucial for not only protecting your teeth but also for enhancing sleep quality. A poorly fitting OTC mouth guard can be uncomfortable and may even dislodge during the night, which can interrupt sleep and prevent you from reaching deeper, restorative stages of the sleep cycle.

By opting for Remi, you ensure a night guard that stays in place comfortably throughout the night. This contributes to a more peaceful sleep experience without the disruptions caused by discomfort or the need to readjust a dislodged guard.

In What Ways Does Remi's Customization Process Outperform Over-The-Counter Mouth Guard Fit?

Remi stands apart from OTC mouth guards by offering a customization process that involves taking a dental impression at home. This ensures that every night guard is crafted to the exact specifications of the wearer's dental structure, resulting in unparalleled fit and protection.

The customization process is straightforward, and Remi's kit includes everything needed to create a precise mold of your teeth. This level of customization is something OTC mouth guards cannot match, leading to a more effective and comfortable night guard for daily use.
