Your treatment at Bite & Bright
Care, clearly explained.
A tooth gem is a small decorative piece bonded to the outer tooth surface. The dentist checks the enamel, gum health and how your teeth meet. Tooth jewellery can trap plaque, irritate nearby tissues or damage teeth. The American Dental Association advises against tooth gems because of these risks.
Your visit
We discuss the placement and explain how the gem could affect cleaning and your bite. If there is active decay, gum inflammation or a concern about enamel damage, we discuss the appropriate dental care first.
After your treatment
Clean carefully around the gem and contact the clinic if it loosens, rubs or becomes difficult to clean. Arrange professional removal to reduce the risk of damaging the enamel.
Common questions
How long does a tooth gem stay on?
Wear time varies with the position, your bite and daily habits. If it loosens or you want to remove it, ask your dentist to assess the tooth.
