Night Guards Don’t Fix the Problem — Reviv Does

Let’s be blunt.
If night guards actually worked, you wouldn’t still be grinding your teeth, waking up sore, or wondering why your jaw hurts more than it did a year ago.

The truth?
Night guards protect teeth. Reviv fixes the reason you’re grinding them.

And that difference—mechanical versus protective—is everything.

1. The Hidden Truth About Night Guards

Your dentist probably told you that a night guard will “stop grinding” or “prevent damage.”
Technically, that’s half true.
Night guards absorb force. But they don’t change the force pattern itself.

So your jaw keeps clenching.
Your muscles stay tight.
Your skull remains compressed.

In other words—you’re guarding the symptom, not solving the cause.

2. Why You Grind: It’s Physics, Not Psychology

Teeth grinding isn’t “stress.”
It’s a structural feedback loop between your jaw and brain.

When your teeth lose height from wear, your jaw shifts closer to your skull.
That compression triggers the nervous system to tighten muscles to protect the airway.
So you clench harder—especially during sleep.

It’s not anxiety.
It’s architecture.

The only way to stop it? Restore the space that’s missing.

3. What Reviv Does Differently

Reviv mouthguards are not just bite protectors—they’re biomechanical re-aligners.
They don’t “block” grinding; they reprogram the jaw by restoring proper spacing.

The Core Physics:

• Adds dental height: Restores the vertical distance between jaw and skull.
  
  
• Unlocks occlusion: Keeps the bite dynamic, not frozen.
  
  
• Decompresses cranial pressure: Frees nerves and fascia.
  
  
• Relaxes muscles naturally: So you stop clenching on your own.
  

That’s how Reviv breaks the grinding loop.

4. The Problem with Hard Plastic Guards

Hard guards lock the bite.
 Reviv lets your body move, adjust, and heal—exactly how it’s designed to.

5. From Symptom Management to System Correction

Think of it this way:

• A night guard is like putting a helmet on during a migraine.
  
  
• Reviv is fixing the blood flow that caused it.
  

It’s the difference between cushioning the impact and removing the impact altogether.

Reviv doesn’t ask your muscles to behave. It gives them the geometry to relax.

7. FAQs

1. Will Reviv stop my grinding completely?
Yes—over time. Once the jaw decompresses, the nervous system no longer triggers clenching.

2. Is Reviv safe for long-term use?
Completely. Both models use medical-grade elastomer tested for overnight wear.

3. What if my jaw feels sore early on?
That’s normal—your muscles are adjusting to restored spacing.

4. Can I use it if I have crowns or braces?
Yes. Reviv’s flexibility accommodates mild irregularities.

5. Should I throw away my old night guard?
 Yes. If it locks your bite, it’s keeping you in compression.

8. The Biomechanics Advantage

When you stop grinding, it’s not just your jaw that changes.
Your neck straightens.
Your breathing improves.
Your face relaxes.

That’s what decompression looks like.
 That’s what healing physics feels like.
