The GrindGuardN is a mouth guard intended to protect against grinding and clenching.

The GrindGuard® is an oral appliance consisting of a thin exterior tray (shell) that covers approximately half of the lower or upper arch, with a dome shape protrusion (in the center of the device), to be situated over the central incisors and an internal layer which can be melted at low temperatures and molded to the individuals' teeth. The outer tray is manufactured from polysulfone material and is formed by injection molding. The inner, formable layer consists of polycaprolactone. The GrindGuard® is designed to prevent night grinding. After a brief submersion in water which has been heated in the microwave the thermoplastic liner becomes translucent and formable. The patient centers the device over his/her lower front teeth and bites until pressure is felt on upper and lower two front teeth. Gentle pressure is applied to the ends of the GrindGuard4 for approximately 2 minutes in order to set the thermoplastic material. The rigid polysulfone outer tray helps the softer material maintain shape and conformity with the teeth while forming the device.
