Night guard and weird jaw pressure

Hi! I have habit of severe bruxism which aggravated when my brother passed away 4 months ago I got a night guard made some time ago but unable to motivate myself to use it I used for 3 days- every morning i would wake up with tightness n pressure in jaw so i stopped The guard fits nicely n doesnt feel uncomfortable though I have a deep bite as per my dentist n thats why it will take time for jaw to align

Frustated with cast of night guard

Hi doctor, I recently got a night guard made using an old dental cast that had some visible dust/stains. Actually I had kept it open n it was lying here n there unchecked My dentist saw the pics of guard n said its okay to use- I expected them to clean it n then use but shockingly the cast has same stains like before Now the guard fits perfectly and I have cleaned it thoroughly multiple times with soap and water but still i am unhappy with the fact that cast was kept dirty- they charged me same amount so i wish i had given fresh impression Please help me get peace of mind since i am not able to make mind to wear it

Multiple dental problems flaring up

I have periodontal disease and generalized bone loss. I went to a dentist recently due to swelling in gums and he said we'd have to remove the molar because he can't save it so we allowed the extraction. Now I think I should have at least confirmed that this is the only way to go about it from other specialists. He mentioned grade 2 mobility in that molar and few  other teeth. He said that I have my wisdom teeth pushing into neighbouring teeth and due to my condition I'd lose all my teeth soon and all I can do is wait for it to happen. I have been prescribed rexidine-m forte gel+ sensoform gum paint to prevent any further loss. I had tartar buildup and I was recommended deep cleaning. But after that my gums have been very sensitive. I'm quite frustrated about this condition. Is there a way I can save my teeth? I'm attaching my x-ray from a month ago for reference.
