Hi, Scott: Tooth grinding seems to be pretty widespread. First dentist I tried made me an outrageous mouthpiece (for a fighter not a sleeper), but a second dds has come up with a lighter weight plastic device that has helped, and helped even when I don't wear it...somehow it breaks the pattern. I gather there are several varieties available, but I've suffered cracked crowns and chipped teeth until I found this interim solution (guard has a short life, a year or so). All in all, it's been very expensive... All we have to do, of course, is give up pain, eliminate stress, banish insomnia, and we won't grind anymore!! Good luck.
