I’ve tried custom molded mouthpieces for grinding but couldn’t adjust to sleep with them. I notice them and feel the discomfort of it not feeling natural despite it being a pricey professionally manufactured piece. It just feels too artificial. I also wonder about the long term effects of polymers in the mouth for long periods of time daily.

It took me a couple weeks to get used to it, but get used to it I did. I would still prefer a universe where I didn't have to wear it, but at this point it doesn't bother me too much.

I agree the plastics might be bad for me, but I justify it because I suspect that just continuing with the apnea is almost certainly worse for me, considering how many diseases appear to be caused by it.

Every mouthpiece I got tasted awful, made me drool all night, and within days my apparently mega jaw would just grind right through them
