[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just go to a different dentist who will make a mouthguard from a mold. [/quote]
If only I had though about that. Oh wait, I did! In the post just above. Did you not have enough coffee?

Only a fool throws a $700 mouth guard across the room.  I am guessing that you have TMJ.  I had a severe case of TMJ  20 years ago when a mouth guard was only $200.  When I took it out to eat or brush my teeth, I put it in its case. I suggest you try doing the same.

Yeah I am baffled by a *frequent* habit of pulling out your night guard and flinging it across the room. Especially since they are burdensome to get and cost so much. I don't understand why you have not addressed this problem sooner and just accepted this habit.

This would be like if someone said they were habitually flinging their cell phone across the room in the middle of the night and then got upset one one night, this habit led to the destruction of their cell phone. Presumably you would start looking for a way to avoid doing that the first time it happened.[/quote]
Thanks so much to you and the immediate PP for your incredible endeavors at helpfulness. Unfortunately you don’t seem to have read my OP, particularly this part:

[i]I had to replace it last year and the new one has never been quite right. I keep taking it for adjustments, but sometimes I remove in my sleep. Usually it’s near my pillow. But sometimes I must hurl it because it turns up across the room[/i].

[b]It’s something that occurs sometimes while I am sleeping[/b], and I haven’t yet achieved a state of sleeping that allows me to do things like tidily placing the guard in its case. Although if I did achieve such a state, I would probably put the guard in my mouth where it could do its job. As to remedying the root issue, my dentist has made several adjustments since I’ve had this particular guard, alas, we haven’t reached perfection. Are you able to tidy and organize while sleeping? This must be an amazing life hack. Please do tell us your secret. I have so many photos to organize and my youngest child is a sweet tornado. If I could tidy while sleeping that would be grand.[/quote]
