Good for clenching but encourages more clenching

I bought this after my dentist suggested I try it for clenching. I have TMJ and would only recommend it if you have TMJ if your dentist thinks it's okay. I like that it stays in place effortlessly and the fact that my molars aren't touching makes it easier for my jaw to relax. The instructions state that if you can remove it with your tongue, you must adjust it to fit your teeth. I couldn't squeeze it hard enough that I couldn't remove it with my tongue. I also still clenched my jaw because the material is soft and for some reason just encourages you to clench your teeth more while you sleep, which also leads to more clenching during the day. (That's what the dentist said and recommended a hard plastic protector, but the price was around $400.) I think it's probably good for those who grind their teeth, but not for those who clench their teeth, and me don't feel like it should be advertised to people clenching their jaws.
