I am so glad to have found these little jewels. I've used Plackers flossers for years and am impressed with their quality and economical price (they actually make the perpendicular flossers I can actually use; I can't get my back teeth without giving myself lockjaw with the standard kind!). So I had good expectations when I found these and was not disappointed.
I have struggled with not so much grinding my teeth but with pressure, clenching at night. I discovered this the hard way about a decade ago when I had to have two very expensive root canals due to subterranean (haha, my term for periodontal) cracks that showed up with agonizing suddenness. After dealing with that situation, I obviously began using one of the name brand standards that you boil and fit, which actually worked very well until it wore out after maybe a year or so. I really liked and had a great experience with that one. However, my attempts to form another one did not work for some reason, I think due to some teeth shifting and change in my bite following the root canals. And when I did form one, I was uncomfortably aware of it and couldn't fall asleep due to the distraction.
I tried about every other economical version on the market, but couldn't find one that either worked or was comfortable enough to stay with. I didn't want to invest in a super expensive custom professional one unless absolutely necessary. So I felt some hope when I stumbled across these on Amazon when shopping for some other dental products. At the price I figured they were definitely worth a shot. I was tired of wasting money on things that didn't work.
I was pleasantly impressed and relieved. They are VERY lightweight and comfortable. They have flexibility to adapt to my bite without tension and discomfort. And basically feel like wearing a comfortable broken-in pair of jeans or shoes. Perhaps the only negative thing I have to say, based on other reviews, is that they may not work well for everybody since every body is different in shape and size. They do tend to run a little on the small side. It may be an asset in the sense that they take up as little space as possible. For me they separate and cushion my teeth enough to do the job. But they may not extend back far enough for some. Another consideration is clenching versus movement. I need primarily the cushioning and vertical separation and don't really grind. Grinding could probably cause them to dislodge fairly easily.
Just because they're disposable doesn't mean they can't be used for a good while. Another reviewer mentioned about cleaning them between uses. Absolutely! Because of their lightness and flexibility they will eventually wear out. But with the price, fantastic comparative value. I plan on staying with these. They've given comfort, protection, and peace of mind in preventing the prospect of another fractured tooth. Weirdly, I actually look forward to popping them in at night. I hope this helps someone. Certainly worth giving a try and may just be a good solution. Anything to cut down on dental problems and expense!
(As an aside, I have to put in a plug for the toothpastes with hydroxyapatite. I've experienced good results with those for dealing with periodontal deterioration, sensitivity, and mitigating softening enamel.)

Actually pretty amazing!!
Pretty amazing- just fits! Helps to avoid ruining your teeth from grinding when you sleep. Can be worn on top or bottom teeth- fits well either way. Doesn't hurt gums, not a tight uncomfortable fit. Really pleased! Give them a try.
