Paddster16 if you're reading, or anyone else (Dyan west).... the puresleep.com snore mouthguard cure came yesterday. He's going to wait to use it when he has 'less' coming up in the mornings. Sometime next week, maybe next weekend.
The instructions tell you because it forces your lower jaw forward (and if you read/watch the stuff at puresleep.com it shows why it does that) when you wake and remove it, it can take 2-3 hours before your jaw gets back into normal alignment. "Don't be alarmed, that's normal. It can take several days to a week for your jaw to re-learn the right alignment once it's out." Well crap. Not something he needed this morning or for several mornings coming up. Any chance of 2-3 hours of NON-alignment won't cut it.
It also says that if you stop using the mouthguard for a couple days, you may put yourself back to the beginning of the "jaw re-learning alignment" deal.
He's willing to try it, just not willing to try yet with the mornings he has coming between now and next weekend.
So! Another update then. If he doesn't like it, then I think having a dentist make one is better. But we're hoping this works. Again, they'll refund $$ if you don't like it or it doesn't work. I'll keep on posting about it.
