I totally get that feeling—it's really unsettling when you notice something changing and can't pinpoint why. I had a similar issue a while back, and the dentist suggested a night guard too. Honestly, I was hesitant at first because of the cost, but I found a pretty affordable one online that you mold yourself at home. It took a bit of getting used to, but now I sleep better and don't stress as much about my teeth shifting. Glad you're seeing improvement already... hang in there!
I feel you on the frustration—it's like one day you glance in the mirror and suddenly notice something off, right? I've tried those mold-at-home guards too, and they're honestly pretty decent for the price. But if you're still noticing shifting, maybe look into clear aligners down the line? They're pricier, but they gradually straighten things out without being too noticeable. Either way, glad you're already seeing some progress... teeth stuff can be such a slow game, haha.
Haha, teeth stuff really is the slowest game ever... I went the DIY mold route too—felt like a mad scientist mixing that goop in my kitchen. Honestly, it worked okay-ish for me, but aligners def seem like the next logical step if things keep shifting. Just gotta mentally prep my wallet first...
Did you find the DIY molds accurate enough? I tried them once and ended up with a wonky impression—my dentist had a good laugh at my expense, lol. Aligners were definitely pricier upfront, but honestly, the convenience and accuracy made it worth it for me. Have you checked if your dentist offers payment plans or financing options? Mine did, and it softened the blow to my wallet quite a bit...

Haha, glad I'm not alone! Honestly, those DIY molds stressed me out big time... kept worrying I'd mess it up (spoiler: I did). Aligners through my dentist felt safer—pricey, yeah, but peace of mind counts for something.
