Bejeweled teeth

Some people like...shiny. Dental jewelry especially appeals to young women.
But what needs to be paid attention to?
Glitter or small stones are glued onto teeth with a special product and can be removed quite easily.
This kind of jewelry is considered not very dangerous, provided, however, that those who wish to wear them have them applied properly, take care of their oral hygiene, and have regular checkups by their dentist.
Dental jewelry should be applied by a dentist, who first checks whether oral health and hygiene are sufficient and whether the enamel on which it will be applied is healthy. The dentist bonds the jewelry with a specific product, also used for white fillings.
Is parental consent needed?
If a minor wants to decorate their teeth with a glitter, they must have parental consent. Although the application of these jewels does not represent any difficulty, it is still a small intervention on the teeth.
It should be pointed out that the placement of gemstones such as diamonds (real glitter) is possible, but it should be known that in order to attach them, it is necessary to drill slightly into the healthy tooth to allow the tip to fit.
At our practice we have chosen to apply Swarowski brand glitter. For any information or application of glitter we gladly remain at your disposal and you can contact us at 091/921.01.71
