Dental Insurance and Teeth Night Guards.
My current dental insurance denied coverage for me to have a dental night guard. I grind my teeth when I sleep and the dentist advising me to wear one. However their cost for night guards without my insurance help is $400.00 I see teeth night guards on line for around $25.00 – $50.00 I know they are not custom fitted but will they work just the same. I not going to spend $400.00 since that is just to much for me right now.
Answer: If you can not afford the $400.00 cost at the dental office it is worth trying the over the counter night guards. They will help to protect your teeth. They just may not be as comfortable to wear as ones your dentist can make that will be custom fitted.
