Custom Made guard: A custom made guard by your dentist is the best appliance to use. The boil and bite store bought items are ill fitting and are not comfortable. In addition, your dental pain can be from issues other than bruxism, so have a local dentist take a look.

Get diagnosis : You could have gum disease or a cavity or lots of stress .Before you seek a mouth guard find out what the cause is , you may have all three problems so see a dentist now.
