Tooth Jewellery: Sparkle with Aurora of Dental Cosmos: An Overview
Journal Title: Journal of Dental Health and Oral Research - Year 2023, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Tooth jewellery is an emerging trend in cosmetic dentistry, offering a novel and non-invasive means of personalizing one’s smile. This innovative practice involves the application of small, decorative gems or metals to the surface of teeth, often using safe dental adhesives. While primarily a cosmetic enhancement, tooth jewellery has gained popularity due to its versatility and temporary nature, allowing individuals to experiment with different styles and remove them at will. This review article explores the burgeoning field of tooth jewellery within dentistry, highlighting its aesthetic appeal and the minimal impact it has on oral health. It delves into the variety of materials and designs available, emphasizing the importance of professional application to ensure safety and durability. Furthermore, it addresses the cultural and societal influences behind this trend, reflecting how individuals increasingly view their smiles as canvases for self-expression. Tooth jewellery represents an intriguing intersection of art and dentistry, presenting a unique option for those seeking to add a touch of glamour to their smiles. While not without its considerations, the practice showcases dentistry’s evolving role in offering innovative solutions that go beyond oral health, aligning with the broader concept of enhancing overall well-being through self-expression and confidence.
