Can I put my silicone night guard in after I just had an extraction? It's the same arch where I had the tooth removed from. (I am more clenching than grinding in my sleep.)
Hi Groovy!
Wait to wear your silicone night guard until you are fully healed. In fact, you may have to have a new one made, because the missing teeth may have helped to hold it in place or it might rub on your sockets.
Asking your dentist will be more useful, more accurate & actually based on evidence related to you. Hope this helps.
