Dental jewelry

Dental jewelry is the generic term for a variety of dental ornaments, strongly determined by the respective fashion. The dental jewelry includes the so-called Twinkles (brillies), the Dazzlers and grills.

Artificial dental crowns can also be considered as dental jewelry in some cases. In some Eastern European countries, unveneered gold crowns are considered a sign of wealth.

Twinkles (to twinkle - "to flash") or Brillies are dental jewelry with rubies, diamonds or the gemstone imitation rhinestone as a half-relief.

Dazzlers (to dazzle - "blend") consist of an ornate gold foil.

Fortification

Twinkles and Dazzler, similar to brackets in orthodontics, are glued to the tooth with a composite resin with the help of the acid etching technique (roughening of the surface of the enamel by etching with phosphoric acid) (bonding). If properly attached, they can be removed without permanent damage to the teeth

Grills are made individually with the help of an impression and then integrated.
