Yes. My son uses the mouth guard to play basketball and has been hit numerous times and has had no problems with chipped or damaged teeth

Yes. I love the mouth guard, I chipped my tooth and I have a fake cap on my front tooth from chipping it and with this mouthpiece never had a problem..

Wish I could help. I purchased the mouthguard for my 8 year old that plays basketball and baseball. It works great for that!

Yes it does come with two mouth guards. You will have to follow simple instructions on how to mold them to fit.

Yes it works with braces. It can feel a little big but it is a good protection mouth guard.

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.

Yes. When wearing it, my front teeth are separated. The guard keeps them apart with a piece in the back.

Yes the mouth guard fits over braces great. Both bottom and top braces. I train MMA and it has worked for all aspects of it. No damage to my lips, gums, or braces. I ordered 2 more just so I had spares.

Hi i am not sure what you mean by the new chunky one. My guards look like the picture here. I put them in a denture case in dilute alcohol when not using. I also cut the bottom part off as it hurts my cheeks. So I use the piece between my teeth with the top part attached and no bottom part if that makes any sense. This is the only guard I can sleep in.

It is a one piece mouthguard-like product that covers both the upper & lower teeth. You custom fit it to your mouth/teeth - by heating up in hot water and then forming it to your teeth (remember to slightly jut your lower jaw forward during this process so that your tongue will naturally move forward. My wife swears by the results - I might make a little noise for a couple of minutes 1 night per month.

I will say that a lower guard will feel more natural, however I chose an upper guard because I am missing two molars that I am in process of having implants to replace so I didn't want to get a guard then have to get another one. It stays in place just fine, just bite hard on the impression mold to get a good tight fit.

I have a small mouth too as my dentist tells me. It fits fine. I find that as I grind the mouth guard it spreads a little which is still a good fit for my mouth. I tend to replace mine every other month. The best part is that it is BPA free. BPA raises your estrogen levels which too much causes cancer cells to activate.

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.

You can purchase a kit and make your own grinding guard by loking at your local pharmacy in the dental section. For about $25 you can get a kit with very easy-to-follow directions. I used it because the dentist is too expensive. It works great and I use it every night.

Probably not. It has three adjustment positions. I use it in mid position and I am an average adult male, 5" 10" at 180 lbs. I suggest you send your search engine to find "dental guard for children". HTH. This works very well for me.

No because it's already been molded the first time and it won't fit. However LiteBITE Mouthguards will send you two Mouthguards in case you mess up the first one. If you mess up both then call them or email them and they will send you another pair, no questions asked.

It will cover mising front teeth. It you have two or more front teeth to fit it too. Do not try to eat with it in your mouth. It can break ,but can be repaired with super glue.

Yes, should not be a problem, just prevents teeth on teeth contact, no grinding
