Do tooth gems damage your teeth?Tooth Gems+
No. We use lead-free gems and dental-grade adhesives - the same bonding materials used in orthodontics. There is no drilling and no enamel damage. When you're ready to remove a gem, it can be safely polished off without harming the tooth.
How long do tooth gems last?Tooth Gems+
With proper aftercare, tooth gems typically last 6 months to several years. Longevity depends on your bite, oral habits, and how well you follow the aftercare instructions provided at your appointment.
Can I eat and drink normally with a tooth gem?Tooth Gems+
Yes - after the first 24–48 hours. We recommend avoiding sticky or very hard foods directly on the gem, and skipping electric toothbrush pressure directly over it for the first two days.
How are custom grillz made?Custom Grillz+
Every set starts with a consultation and a precise dental impression (in-studio or via our mail-in mold kit). Your mold is used to hand-craft your grillz in your chosen metal and finish, followed by polishing, stone setting if selected, and a final quality inspection before pickup or insured shipping.
How long do custom grillz take?Custom Grillz+
Most sets are completed within 2–4 weeks after your mold is received, depending on complexity, metal choice, and stone work. Rush options may be available - ask during your consultation.
What metals do you offer for grillz?Custom Grillz+
Sterling silver, 10K gold, 14K gold, white gold, and rose gold. All metals are sourced lead-free and safe for oral wear. Solid and open-face styles are available, plus diamond and CZ stone setting.
Do you offer a mail-in mold kit?Custom Grillz+
Yes! If you're not local, we ship a professional mold kit with step-by-step instructions and a video consultation to guide you through taking your impression. Return shipping is included.
Is professional whitening safe for sensitive teeth?Teeth Whitening+
Yes. We assess your sensitivity before treatment and tailor the strength and session length accordingly. A desensitizing treatment is included, and we'll give you a full aftercare plan.
How white will my teeth get?Teeth Whitening+
Most clients see an improvement of 2–8 shades in a single session. Results vary based on the natural shade of your teeth, staining type, and lifestyle habits like coffee or smoking.
How do I book an appointment?Booking+
Use the Book page to choose your service and request your preferred date and time. A deposit is required to confirm every appointment. You'll receive a confirmation with everything you need to prepare.
Is a deposit required?Payments+
Yes - a non-refundable deposit is required to secure every appointment and is applied toward your service total. Custom grillz orders require a 50% deposit before production begins.
What payment methods do you accept?Payments+
We accept all major cards, and cash. A cash discount is available on select services. Payment plans can be arranged for custom grillz orders - just ask during your consultation.
Do you ship finished grillz?Shipping+
Yes, completed grillz can be shipped fully insured with tracking anywhere in the US. Local pickup from the studio is also available by appointment.
What if I need to reschedule?Business Policies+
Life happens! You can reschedule up to 48 hours before your appointment and your deposit transfers with you. Reschedules within 48 hours or no-shows forfeit the deposit.
How do I care for my grillz?Aftercare+
Clean your grillz after each wear with a soft brush and gentle soap, store them in the case provided, and avoid sleeping or eating with them in. We include a full care guide with every set.
How do I care for my smile after whitening?Aftercare+
For the first 48 hours, follow the 'white diet' - avoid coffee, red wine, dark sauces, and smoking. Use a straw for colored drinks and maintain gentle brushing. We provide a full aftercare card at your session.
