My dentist quoted me $650 to make one. I tried this instead and the morning jaw pain was gone inside a fortnight.
What's in the box
Boil a mug of water and let it stand for a moment. Submerge the guard for about 20 seconds until it softens. Take it out, press it firmly against your upper teeth and bite down. Hold for 30 seconds, then rinse under cold water to set the shape.
Not happy with it? Reheat and start again. Up to 20 times.
Free shipping on every order, no minimum. Orders leave our US warehouse within one business day and typically arrive in 5 to 8 days.
You get a tracking number by email the moment it ships.
Rinse in cool water after every use and brush it gently with a soft, dry toothbrush. Skip the toothpaste — it is abrasive and will cloud the plastic.
An occasional soak in denture cleaner is fine. Never use hot water, or you will reset the mould.
Sleep on it for 100 nights. If your mornings are not better, email hello@getheration.com and we refund the full amount.
You do not need to post anything back and you keep the guards. No form, no restocking fee, no argument.
You cannot stop grinding in your sleep. You can stop it destroying your teeth.
Heration is a slim, mouldable night guard that absorbs the force your jaw generates while you sleep — up to 250 lbs of it — so your teeth do not have to.
No dentist appointment. No impression kit. No $600 of moulded plastic. Drop it in hot water, bite once, and it is shaped to your mouth in sixty seconds.
Why it matters: enamel does not grow back. Repairing a cracked or worn tooth runs $300 to $4,000. A night guard costs less than one dinner out.
Ships free from the US within one business day.
IF ANY OF THIS SOUNDS FAMILIAR
Most people who grind their teeth never catch themselves doing it — they are asleep. They just live with the aftermath every single morning and assume it is stress, age, or a bad mattress.
You wake up feeling like you chewed through the entire night.
A dull ache at the temples that nobody can explain.
Flatter. More sensitive to cold. Chips you swear were not there.
You slept the whole night and still woke up drained.
Mid-email, mid-traffic, jaw locked shut without noticing.
Three or more of these? Your jaw has been working all night.
SIXTY SECONDS, ONCE
A custom guard from a dental office means two appointments, a fortnight of waiting and upwards of $600. Heration needs a mug of hot water and one minute of your evening.
Twenty seconds in a mug of just-boiled water is all it takes to soften.
Press it against your teeth and hold. It sets to your exact bite as it cools.
That's it. Slim enough that most people forget it is there by night three.
Not happy with the fit? Reheat and remould it. Up to 20 times.
THE HONEST COMPARISON
A lab-made guard from your dentist is the gold standard and we are not going to pretend otherwise. It is also eight to twelve times the price, and it takes a month to arrive.

WHAT CHANGES, AND WHEN
We are not going to promise it cures anything overnight. Here is what customers actually report, in the order they report it.
NIGHT 1
You will probably still clench — but you will wake up with less jaw tightness and a strange sense of relief, because the pressure went into the guard instead of your teeth.
WEEK 1
Your mornings start to feel easier: less soreness, fewer tension headaches, and noticeably calmer sleep. This is usually the week people stop being sceptical.
WEEKS 2–4
Your jaw finally gets rest at night, so it stops bracing through the day. You wake up more rested and far more in control of the grinding.
MONTHS 2–3
No new enamel wear. The damage already done stays done — but nothing is being added to it. That is the entire point of a guard.
6 MONTHS
Grinding stops feeling like a threat. Your teeth stay protected, your mornings stay comfortable, and you stop bracing for the next dentist appointment.
12 MONTHS+
Putting it in is as automatic as brushing. Calm mornings, teeth that have not moved, and the feeling that you finally broke the cycle.
FROM PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT THIS

I stopped waking up with that tight, clamped feeling around week two. My partner says the noise stopped almost immediately.
I take it everywhere now. Would have been gross carrying it loose in a washbag.
I rushed the moulding and got a sloppy fit. Redid it the next night following the steps and it is spot on. My fault, not theirs.
Team Heration
Thanks Owen — we would rather you remould it than settle. Glad the second go worked.
Worked out cheaper per guard and I do not have to think about reordering for a year.
She asked what I had changed. Said the wear on my molars had not moved since the last visit. That was enough for me.
Ordered for my husband, he could not get on with it. One email and the money was back in four days. Kept the guards too. Buying again for myself.
We publish the critical ones too.
BEFORE YOU BUY
No, and be wary of anyone who tells you it will. Grinding is usually driven by stress or your bite. What a guard does is put a barrier between your teeth so the force lands on replaceable plastic instead of irreplaceable enamel.
Food-grade EVA thermoplastic, BPA-free. No screws, no springs, no moving parts. If you have loose teeth, extensive dental work, braces or untreated gum disease, check with your dentist first — that one is genuinely worth a phone call.
Most people take two or three nights to stop noticing it. It is considerably slimmer than a sports mouthguard. If you are still fighting it after a fortnight, take the refund — we would rather that than have it sit in a drawer.
Three to six months for most people, less if you grind heavily. That is exactly why the multi-packs work out cheaper — you are going to need another one.
Most people take the four-pack: it is the best price per guard for a year of use, and you always have a spare while one is drying. The two-pack is the sensible way to try it first.
