Yes, that's exactly what I have. It's rather unpleasant, to say the least. I've had mine since February and they're quite cloudy, plus they're wearing through at the bottom where I must be chewing on them in my sleep. (I only wear them at night.) I'm not a tooth grinder as such; I think it's just normal kind of moving (and muttering, probably!) but it's slowly wearing them down. I have just moved interstate and need to find a new dentist. I am thinking of asking if they can make me a wire retainer instead of the clear one. The way this one is going I think I'm going to have to replace it every year anyway, so I'd rather switch now if I can.
