Can a custom night guard move your teeth?
A night guard can shift your teeth, most especially if it was not custom-made to make a perfect fit in your mouth. If you use an over the counter night guard or ones that only cover the front teeth, more than likely, your back teeth will shift due to the pressure that your jaw exerts on them.
How do I stop clenching my jaw when I sleep?

Based on the cause of your condition, you may need a specific type of mouthguard, so it’s best to consult with your dentist first.
Why do my teeth hurt after wearing my night guard?

How long do night guards last?

Should a night guard fit tight?
Your Custom Night Guard Should Feel Snug. When you first put it on, the night guard may feel tight, but it needs to fit securely to stay on your teeth without being held in place with assistance from your jaw. The snug fit will keep the custom night guard in place so that it does not fall out during the night.
