24-Carat Gold Teeth Bling With No Harm
Grillz move over. A brand new non-invasive way to show off some gold in your mouth is called "Facings". They look like gold caps but are simply bonded onto the surface of the tooth without harming the enamel.
Santa Barbara, CA (PRWEB) July 16, 2007
When Martrell Lewis went to his dentist's last week, he was prepared to have his front tooth prepared and a full frontal golden crown set onto it a few weeks later. His dentist refused to do so, and said the tooth was perfectly healthy and explained that he did not want to damage a tooth for cosmetic purposes.
Luckily the times of harming teeth for gold fronts are a thing of the past now. DecoDent Teeth Jewelry introduces its new line of Gold and White Gold Facings. "Our facings are temporary white and yellow gold flat shapes that do not require any drilling at all. The Facings are simply bonded onto the enamel and stay anywhere from 3 months to one year on the tooth," says Monika Linau, owner of DecoDent, who introduces this non-invasive way of enhancing smiles.
The 18 and 24ct gold facings come in different sizes as full or partial decorations, like a slit or an "L" and "U" shape or a full cover of the front or second tooth. The application has to be professionally done by a dentist, but is easy and only takes a few minutes.
"I like to be able to offer the Facings to our patients," says Dental Assistant Serafina Lopez, who measures and cleans the patient's teeth before her boss attaches the gold facing.
The only disadvantage is that you can't remove it like a grill, but if the shiny tooth adornment should be removed, a quick visit to the dentist will take your tooth back to its original state.
Martrell loves his new "bling" and says that now he's happy his dentist refused to destroy his tooth and he found this cool alternative. Besides being easier on the pocket, there was no Novocain needed and it didn't even hurt to put it on.
No longer is this latest body art trend only for hip-hop celebrities or film stars, DecoDent offers these shiny tooth jewels to local customers in dental offices and spas. The price for the procedure varies depending on jewel and dental fees.
