Only thing that I have learned with mine is to stay away from gum, taffy ect anything that forces you to use your jaw to much. Sometimes i give and chew a little piece of gum(dentyne size) but only for about 30 min until i feel my jaw tightening up. I need the guard as well, and tried the generic ones from the store but they were to thick. I can always tell when I'm stressed though cause I wake up knowing that I clentched my teeth all night long. I'm watching this thread just in case anyone has any other ideas
