I got my protech dent yesterday it fits great and is very comfortable. I can speak better with the protech dent than any other mouth guard I've owned including my lower profile night guard. The protech dent is thin 1.6mm and is supposed to give 30% more protection than normal mouth guards.
The package came with two protech dent guards. The protech dent seems very robust. I'm not sure that you need the second guard. So you could save some cash if you can find someone to go half on it.
Also the protech dent seems to be made out some sort of memory plastic. I had some bite marks on my first try (I didn't have the water hot enough, the instruction are very specific and call for 50 C). When I placed it back in the hot water the second time, I had a hard time seeing the initial bite marks I made.
When done right the fitting takes minutes, mine turned out to be a tight but comfortable fit. I was a little curious about the matrix of holes. I thought there would be less of a suction effect holding the guard in. but the fit is tight.
For the strange people that drink through their teeth, you can do this with protech dent.
I've lost two teeth 14 yrs ago then the cost was over $8,000 to get implants, so $30 for some preventive measures is cheap.
