No dentist. No impressions. No plastic regret.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through exactly how to fit your Reviv Mouth Guard at home—step by step—so it actually helps you stop clenching, grinding, and waking up in pain.
Let’s get started.
✅ What’s Included in Your Reviv Kit
When your Reviv arrives, you’ll find:
-
1x Reviv Mouth Guard
-
Fitting instructions
-
Storage case
-
(Optional: Support bar, depending on model)
All you need to provide is:
-
A mug or small bowl
-
Hot water
-
A timer
-
A mirror
-
Clean hands and calm breathing 😊
🕒 Total Time: Under 10 Minutes
This is not a complicated lab-style mold.
Reviv is designed to be reheated, reshaped, and remolded whenever you need.
🔥 Step-by-Step At-Home Fitting Instructions
STEP 1: Boil the Water
-
Boil enough water to submerge the guard completely
-
Let it sit for 1 minute off heat so it’s hot, not bubbling
TIP: Use a mug, not a pot—it’s easier to handle.
STEP 2: Submerge the Guard
-
Use tongs or a spoon to place the Reviv in the water
-
Let it soak for 60–90 seconds, or until soft and pliable (not mushy)
Watch carefully: If it gets too soft, it’ll lose shape.
STEP 3: Shake Off Excess Water & Insert into Mouth
-
Remove the guard
-
Shake off excess water
-
Let it cool 5–10 seconds (test on your wrist—it should be warm, not hot)
-
Place it on your bottom or top teeth (depending on model)
STEP 4: Center, Bite, and Press Gently
-
Gently bite down
-
Use your fingers to press the front, sides, and top against your teeth
-
Close your lips and suck in gently for 30 seconds (this helps it contour)
Important: Do not bite too hard or clench—this is a relaxed mold, not a power grip.
STEP 5: Hold & Let It Cool
-
After 30–45 seconds, remove the guard
-
Run it under cold water to set the shape
-
Try it on—if it fits snug and comfy, you're done!
🔁 Not Perfect? Remold It.
One of the best things about Reviv?
You can reheat and remold it as many times as you need.
So if:
-
Your bite changes
-
It feels uneven
-
You just want to try a better fit…
Just repeat the process. No stress. No waste.
💡 Pro Fitting Tips

Mold in front of a mirror

Sit up straight with your jaw relaxed
-
Breathe through your nose during the fitting
