Each guard is custom-fabricated from a dental impression, available for the upper or lower teeth, and is backed by a 6-month guarantee.

Product Insights
ClearRetain's Premium Hard Night Guard is a 1.02mm rigid custom laminate that bridges night guard and retainer: it is thin enough to double as a retainer and less bulky than 2-3mm splints, yet stiff enough to distribute up to 250 PSI of grinding force across the arch. It ships with a two-putty impression kit (three dry-fit trays, 3-minute hold), is fabricated by a 15-year lab technician under dentist-orthodontist supervision, and carries a six-month satisfaction guarantee with free remake or refund if the fit doesn't settle. The catch: extreme grinders are steered to ClearRetain's thicker 2mm guard because the 1.02mm laminate can crack under extreme force, and the remake guarantee covers defects - not bad impressions - so precision in the at-home mold is critical. At $189 (or $115 on sale), it undercuts a dental office's $250 mold fee alone, with optional $25 backup copies, but teeth must be free of brackets, gems, and loose restorations, and care requires avoiding hot water, alcohol, and toothpaste.
Verified claims
- Retention
- Rigid custom laminate holds teeth like a soft retainer — a recognized guard-retainer hybrid.
- Grinder tradeoff
- Extremely aggressive grinders are steered to the 2mm standard guard for maximum durability.
- Purchase protection
- Six-month satisfaction guarantee covers a free remake or refund.
- Material
- Clear hard laminate, BPA- and phthalate-free, stiff enough for severe clenching at ~1mm
- Grinding severity
- For extremely aggressive grinding, ClearRetain recommends its thicker 2mm standard guard instead
- Force distribution
- Rigid hard laminate distributes up to 250 PSI of grinding force across the arch via an exact custom fit.
- Retainer use
- At 1.02mm it falls in the clear-retainer thickness band, so it doubles as a retainer while still absorbing grinding.
- Heavy grinding
- At 1.02mm it is rated for heavy grinding, 49% thinner than the ClearRetain standard 2mm guard.
- Occlusion comfort
- Thinner profile gives a less bulky bite than 2-3mm splints while keeping grinding protection.
- Impression process
- Kit ships with two putty sets, three dry-fit trays, and a 3-minute no-movement hold.
- Teeth preparation
- Teeth must be free of brackets, buttons, gems, and leftover cement, except bonded permanent retainers.
- Impression approval
- ClearRetain's pre-approval confines the remake guarantee to defects, excluding bad molds.
- Break-in
- First-wear tightness is normal and usually settles in a few days.
- Fit
- Free remake or refund within 6 months if the fit doesn't settle.
- Impression quality
- A correct impression needs attachments removed, a still 3-minute set, and approval.
- Care
- Clean with lukewarm water and mild soap; avoid hot water and alcohol.
- Fabrication
- Custom-fabricated from mailed impressions and shipped rigid — no home heating
- Cleaning
- Rinse cool, brush with mild soap, no toothpaste, air-dry; weekly soak.
- Lifespan
- Lasts months to years depending on bite force, grinding, and care.
- Crack replacement
- Free crack replacement lasts 120 days; loss and pet chewing are excluded.
- Dental work compatibility
- Loose restorations, decay and non-retainer bonded attachments must be treated before use
- Durability
- Extreme grinders should pick the 2mm Hard Night Guard over this 1.02mm one
- Grind protection
- Hard laminate handles heavy grinding; extreme grinders can crack it
- Lab supervision
- Fabricated by a 15-year lab technician, supervised by a dentist-orthodontist with 30 years of practice.
- Value
- At $115–$189, the impression kit and six-month guarantee are included; a dental office quoted $250 just for the mold.
- Office cost comparison
- $115 sale price covers putty, trays, return box and prepaid shipping — a quoted office mold fee alone was $250.
- Backup
- 25 USD backup copy cut from the same impression, ready if the guard is lost or broken.
- Warranty
- Free remake covers cracks for 120 days; lost or pet-chewed guards are excluded.
