the Price of a Mouth Guard

I paid $175 out of pocket to have a bite guard made for my mouth to prevent against damage from grinding my teeth at night. This expense was over and above what my dental insurance would cover.

The service I received while getting my mouth guard made was excellent. The dentist that I visited to have my mouth guard made wore a mouth guard himself and therefore he was very familiar with the process and a huge proponent of providing top quality for his patients. He was very thorough and talked me through the entire process of how he was going to make my mouth guard as well as the importance of wearing it nightly in order for it to prevent damage to my teeth as well as to eliminates headaches I would get from grinding my teeth at night. I have followed the doctors orders just as he said and it has made a world of difference in the health of my teeth.

Having a dentist who was so passionate and knowledgeable about this particular procedure and device was a huge advantage. He really knew the advantages of wearing a mouth guard for someone who ground their teeth at night because he was one himself. So I would advise when seeking a special dental procedure, to find a dentist who has first hand experience with that procedure or apparatus.
