THE BROWNS BOARD

thug corrupt police steal man's guns, over grieving over deaths, and seeing a therapist.

I wonder what the far right NRA outrage would have been if Lovi was black. Just another belligerent black man who didn't jump when a cop said jump, didn't roll over and beg for treats like a good little doggy.

Except one of their most prominent spokespersons is black and an attorney.

 

Quit being so fucking simple.

A mouth guard might be a good idea while at work.

 

Dentek (found at Walmart for about $30) is a good start. If you think you're doing it at night too (headaches in the am in the temporal region and/or pain through the cheek and lower jaw) then buy another dentek and see if you can sleep in it.

If you can sleep in that (without subconsciously removing it) then it might be worth looking into a custom hard/Soft dual laminate night guard from your dentist. These can range from $500-2000 depending on how big of an asshole your dentist is.

I always recommend the dentek route first because if you can't sleep in it, you're only out $30-60 depending on if the daytime one is doing the trick or not instead of dumping a paycheck or two (depending on your situation) into something you won't use.

I use a mouthgaurd at night not for grinding but to stop snoring - the basic model (I got to see if it would work) was $50; the fancier model that doesn't cause me issues (like swollen gum because it's not fitted right) cost me about $200.

 

Hard to get used to at first, but nothing now. But man, $2k for a mouth guard? That's crazy.

And you wonder why no one takes you seriously around here.

Yeah. A lot of dentistry prices follow real estate prices. Paying $750k-1.5mil for a 2000 sqft condo or house? How about a $2k night guard to go along with it?

 

"Night guards" for bruxism (grinding) are special in terms of their construction. Dual laminated, so traditional soft acrylic on the "inside" (touching your teeth ) and harder durable acrylic on the outside( touching your opposing teeth). This allows a lower friction coefficient and won't wear down the teeth, not to mention easing the strain on the TMJ and supporting musculature. If a patient is grinding through the enamel of their teeth (hardest substance in the body) you better be giving them something that's gonna last longer than a month.
