I had a similar problem with one of those "mold to your teeth" models. It cost $20 dollars and was worthless. I forget the brand. The next time I am going to buy a simple one that has no mold features.

In theory, yes. Tho I’ve had one made at the dentist office just recently. It does NOT fit perfectly, I can’t use it. Now my wife has had an over the counter model for some time now. The hot water heat method. That one is working like a champ.

Dentists charge about $600. No insurance coverage, I got mine a few years go. Maybe now they have OTC ones that are just as good.

$145?? That isn't bad at all
