Why have a tooth gem?

Tooth gems are making a genuine comeback from the 1990s, when sparkling smiles and eye-catching accessories were in fashion. Today, icons such as Beyoncé, Rosalía and Kendall Jenner, as well as rappers such as Drake, are bringing the look back into style. Tooth gems have become a must for anyone looking to add a retro-chic touch to their appearance.

Once associated mainly with hip-hop stars and pop culture, this jewellery trend has now been embraced by many content creators and public figures, confirming its triumphant return to the world of beauty. It is a glamorous nod to an iconic decade while remaining modern and sophisticated.

The main aesthetic reasons include:
  • Individuality: A tooth gem helps you stand out by adding a sparkling touch to your smile.
  • On-trend appeal: More and more people are embracing tooth gems, making them a highly sought-after aesthetic trend.
  • Personalisation: Gems are available in different colours, shapes and sizes, allowing you to choose a piece that reflects your taste.

What care and aftercare are needed following tooth gem application?

Points to consider:
  • Foods to avoid
  • The right oral hygiene products to use
  • Signs to look out for, such as pain or irritation

After application, suitable care is important to help the gem last. Avoid particularly hard or sticky foods, as they could dislodge it. Use a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste to protect the enamel while keeping the gem in place. It is also important to watch carefully for any sign of pain or irritation. In the rare event that either occurs, consult a dentist promptly.
