The trend of attaching gemstone accessories is supported by many Korean stars. However, experts warn that this trend has some risks for oral health.
Korean female stars are fond of tooth gems (stones attached to teeth), according to TV Report.
Attending Bulgari’s event, Lisa attracted attention with a gemstone pattern attached to her teeth. This detail makes the female idol’s smile stand out even more.
Dental accessories become a trend
In addition to Lisa, Ningning, Hyuna, Choi Yena, Lee Young Ji also responded to the tooth gems trend. Sharing about attaching stones to her teeth, Ningning said: “I have wanted to do this for a long time. However, I have thought carefully about whether I should do it or not.” In the end, the female idol decided to attach stones to film the MV.
According to Allure, tooth gems were popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Teeth with gems are said to be one of the hottest beauty trends of 2022. It is still popular to this day.
Since ancient times, the ancient Mayans placed stones on their teeth to show social class. To date, this trend has important implications for people of color. They show wealth and individuality. Specifically, grillz – tooth jewelry – is popular with many rappers. Grillz models are decorated with diamonds, gold or silver. They can be removed at the end of the day.
Unlike bold grillz models, tooth gem is usually a delicate gem or diamond that is individually attached to the tooth. In 2021, searches for the term “tooth gem” increased by 85%. Meanwhile, on social networks, #toothgems reached 1.6 billion views.
Anjali Rajpal, a cosmetic dentist in Beverly Hills, California, says: “Gems on your teeth create a unique style. It’s a way to express your individuality without having to take on too much influence.” like a tattoo”. This is one of the factors that makes sparkling diamonds and gemstones on teeth more attractive to women.
This trend is popular with many people. However, it does have some potential risks for oral health.
Risk
Installing stones on teeth is quite expensive. Some rock samples do not last forever. Brian Kantor, a cosmetic dentist in New York, estimates that most gemstones on teeth can last from 6 months to a year.
The dentist added: “24 hours after placing stones on your teeth, you should only eat soft foods, avoid using an electric toothbrush or drinking soda, coffee and tea.” Brian Kantor points out that sometimes the stone can fall out when the teeth bite hard on something. However, this does not affect the tooth and the stone can simply be reattached.
Some people want to have gemstones permanently attached to their teeth. Dentist Anjali Rajpal emphasized that removing a permanently attached stone will leave a hole in the tooth. The cavity will then be filled with a filling material that matches the color of the tooth.
Besides, placing stones on teeth can create opportunities for leftover food and bacteria to hide. Dentists emphasize that people who want to get stones should have good oral hygiene habits.
Over time, gemstones can erode tooth enamel, increasing the risk of tooth decay and infection, according to Stensland Dental Studio. For those wearing grillz, allergic reactions or gum irritation may be experienced. If worn for a long time, grillz models can easily damage the tooth surface.
Experts recommend that young people should not attach stones to their teeth at home. The use of glues of unknown origin is very toxic. Some types of glue will not hold the stone the same way as specialized dental materials.
“It is safer if an experienced dentist attaches gemstones to teeth using non-toxic materials. On the other hand, it is necessary to polish the teeth before attaching gemstones to avoid bacteria,” Rajpal said.
