Stress Moves Michigan Dentist to Invent Life-Changing Device

LAKE ORION, Mich., Nov. 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Stress produced by our uncertain economic times and continuing warfare has caused an increase in teeth clenching and grinding that is reaching epidemic proportions.

"Stress is responsible for teeth clenching and grinding," says Dr. Joe Pelerin of Lake Orion, Michigan who has practiced family dentistry for three decades, "and what most people don't realize is that teeth grinding and clenching not only damages teeth and fillings and leads to receding gums and root canals, but also can be the cause of migraine headaches and pain in the shoulders, neck, back and ears."

"Far too many individuals suffer needlessly for years from chronic pain when a simple and inexpensive solution is available," says Dr. Pelerin.

That solution is GrindGuardN (www.GrindGuardN.com), a patented, FDA-approved mouth guard that is far more effective and far less costly than similar products.

"The cheap $20 to $30 over-the-counter mouth guards available in drug stores actually can increase grinding and clenching," explains Dr. Pelerin, "and more expensive traditional horseshoe devices provide some relief but are uncomfortable to use and can cost $200 to $500 or more."

GrindGuardN, which can be purchased online for $50, has worked so effectively for his patients that Dr. Pelerin is offering a 30-day money-back guarantee. His invention stands apart from all other devices because of its patented Central Power Bar that releases the stimulus for clenching, thereby reducing clenching and grinding activity by 70 percent.

"Because it concentrates  forces on the upper and lower midline at the same time when a patient clenches, GrindGuardN is the only device ever shown to reduce clenching and grinding without having to visit the dentist," says Dr. Pelerin. "GrindGuardN is a game changer that has changed lives in dramatic ways and can be easily fitted at home. To order go to www.GrindGuardN.com.
