Will this work if braces are only on the front 4 teeth?

Yes, the instructions specifically say that you can trim the guard. The little "hooks" are evenly spread across the guard, so they will hold when you trim it.

Yep, absolutely. I have loved this brace, it is highly effective and easy to use.

Hi BradleysMom, I would go to sporting smiles website and call them or email them directly. The trays for me were molded about 12 teeth worth for the top and 14 teeth worth on the on the bottom. It's really the front 4-6 in my opinion that hold the trays in place so I don't see why it wouldn't work. Definitely call just in case though. I hear their customer service is friendly.

Not sure, I would think it would work, I have full dentures and it works great on them, I really can't answer your question

It seems that it would work anywhere that your dentures or partials are loose or ill fitting. Of course, this is only a temporary measure until you can have a dentist appointment.

I grind my front teeth as well, and the gap these appliances create at the back is sufficient to keep that from happening. However, I can definitely tell when it's time for me to throw away an old guard and use a new one because my front teeth will start touching if I try to get more than three nights out of a single mouth guard.

It should, but you might have to back off the adjusting lever enough to allow for the thickness of the braces on each side. You shouldn't have a problem.

It should. It certainly won't hurt. Try it and then also talk to your orthodontist, and bring it at your next visit in case they don't know what you're talking about.

I do believe you can use it for either. I have many different braces and most can be used for either right or left.

I only tried one jar and I did see some tightening at my jaw line but I didn't get miraculous results. I don't think a fourth jar will make a difference.

Yes, but ask their orthodontist since everyone with braces may have a different situation.

It's pretty big - and has both upper and lower protection for your teeth - so I would think it would work with braces. It would depend on how big your braces are.

Yes. That's what I bought it for. It's fairly cheap, and may work for you. Give it a try before you go to the dentist and spend $300 for a specially fitted device.

Yes you can, it should work fine. However, I would suggest even thinking about investing in a more protective (expensive) mouthguard or one specifically molded by a dentist if you have that option.

Very doubtful. Way too thick and the guard tens to slip around anyway. From the invisalugn users I've known I should think that appliance alone would suffice. Should be okay, not great, when you no longer wear the braces.

I'm guessing you have a unique mouth or bite, so not certain if this will work or not. One benefit of the DenTek is the adjustability. I'm able to adjust it to were it's comfy to where it's holding my mouth too far open. While too far open isn't the most comfy, it might work to prevent your front teeth from grinding.

Should be fine with some rd adjustments.only one tooth smaller is the only differance
