Cosmetic Dentistry Miami: 5 FAQs About Tooth Gems

Is the process painful?

 

People frequently believe that receiving any cosmetic dentistry treatment in Miami will be uncomfortable. However, the majority of procedures, including tooth jewels, are painless. The procedure to attach a gem to your teeth is non-surgical, thus dealing with injections and anaesthesia is not necessary. You don't even need to get drilling done to place a gem in your tooth, therefore it's a completely painless procedure.

Does the jewel affect brushing?

 

Another popular question about tooth gems is about brushing and associated problems. Getting gems on your tooth won’t affect your brushing in any way. Just the way you brush your teeth twice, you can continue doing so. You should avoid using an electric brush for a while after you get the gem fixed on your tooth. Also, don’t put much pressure on your newly fixed gem, as it may get displaced.

 

Does jewel have side effects on oral health?

Having a jewel on your teeth won’t bring any consequences to your health. Before fixing the jewel it is cleaned properly by the dentist, so there’s no chance of infection or other problems. Even if the jewel gets swallowed along with food, it will come out without doing any harm.

How long the jewel lasts?

The jewel is fixed without drilling in the tooth, which makes people doubt its longevity. You should know that the jewel fixed on your teeth can last from 6 months to a year. There is no fixed duration as to how long it will remain stuck, if your eating habits include hard biting, frequent eating, and chewing, then it may come off early.

Does it cause problems while chewing?

It is assumed that getting a jewel on the teeth will cause the problem in chewing food. But, such is not the case, you may feel that there’s a new element in your mouth for a few days, but you will get used to its presence soon. And, you won’t experience any kind of trouble in your everyday life and while eating.
