> Well this is going to sound weird, but I kept having to have new mouth guards made, bad tmj problem. I now have no money to make another so I am using rolled up glad wrap and it is working great for me. Depends on what your issue is I guess. My bite is so off again that I was having terrible jaw pain brought on by SSRI'[s. I used the glad wrap while on lexapro and it worked for me to ease the jaw pain and teeth clinching issues. But I started tianeptine and so far have not had the jaw pain and teeth clinching issues. Pain is almost gone in the jaw since being on tianeptine.
That's really interesting and creative! How thick is the amount you're using? How do you make sure to keep it in place all night? I'd be afraid of it dislodging and then swallowing it or choking on it.BTW, how is the tianeptine working for you otherwise?
