The best thickness for a night guard typically ranges from 2mm to 3mm. Thinner guards (1mm–2mm) are usually more comfortable and suitable for mild grinding or clenching, while thicker guards (2mm –4mm) provide extra protection for severe cases. The most common thickness that a dentist would make is 3mm. Your dentist can recommend the ideal thickness based on your specific needs.
