A premium guard can be worth paying for if it lasts longer or has stronger remake/warranty protection. This tool makes the lifespan assumption explicit.

Original cost model
Night guard cost over time
The default 18-month replacement interval is an illustrative scenario, not a prediction of product lifespan. Heavy grinding can change replacement frequency materially.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pro Teeth Guard Hybrid Verified 2026-09-06 | $199.99 | $399.98 | $399.98 | Replace every 18 months. Source |
| SportingSmiles Dual Laminate Verified 2026-09-06 | $115.00 | $230.00 | $230.00 | Replace every 18 months. Source |

Use a preset, then change any number. This is a cost model—not a recommendation about how often a dental appliance or brush head should be replaced.

Decision rule: compare price together with material, fit/remake policy, warranty, support and expected lifespan. The cheapest guard is not necessarily the lowest-cost guard if it needs replacement more often.
