Can I eat and drink with the gemstones or crystals on my teeth?
Yes, you can eat and drink with the gemstones or crystals on your teeth. However, we recommend being careful with hard or sticky foods to extend the lifespan of the tooth jewelry.

Can I reuse the gemstones or crystals?

Are the gemstones or crystals safe for my health?

Can I place the gemstones or crystals on my teeth if I have braces or other dental work?
No, we advise against using our Tooth Gem Kit if you have braces or other dental work. The adhesive can damage the dental work and complications may arise when removing the gems or crystals.

Can I return the Tooth Gem Kit if I do not want to use it?
Yes, if you do not want to use our Tooth Gem Kit, you can return it within 14 days of receipt for a full refund. Make sure the kit is returned unopened and in its original packaging. Unfortunately, opened packages cannot be returned for hygienic reasons.

What happens if I get glue on my gums while applying it?
We recommend being extra careful when applying the gemstones or crystals to avoid getting glue on your gums. If a small amount of glue does get on the gums, it is not harmful and will break down on its own over time. Rinse your mouth and teeth thoroughly with water after placing the tooth jewel. Consult your dentist if you continue to experience irritation or discomfort.

Are the gemstones permanent?
No, tooth gems are temporary and will fall out on their own over time. The lifespan varies between 3 weeks to sometimes up to 12 months, depending on the placement and maintenance of your teeth.

Is it removable?
Yes, your dentist can safely remove the tooth jewel for you. We advise against removing the tooth jewel yourself to prevent damage to your teeth.

Will my tooth jewel fall off?
Yes, eventually the tooth jewel will fall off. The lifespan of the tooth jewel is never guaranteed. Realistically, it should last between 3 weeks and 12 months before it falls off. If the tooth jewel falls off, there may be a remaining attachment on the tooth. This attachment will not cause any damage and will be brushed away over time. If necessary, it can be removed by your dentist during your next dental check-up.

Can I place a tooth jewel on veneers?
No, the adhesive can only bond to natural teeth. Our Tooth Gem Kit is not suitable for artificial teeth such as crowns, bridges, and veneers, because they have a different structure than natural teeth.

What if I accidentally swallow the tooth jewel?
Don't worry. The tooth jewel is made of lead-free crystal glass without sharp edges. If you accidentally swallow it, it will leave your body in the same way as other food. It is not dangerous and cannot cause harm. Of course, do not eat it for breakfast.

Why do we advise against using the Tooth Gem Kit during pregnancy?
We absolutely advise against using the Tooth Gem Kit during pregnancy. During pregnancy, hormonal changes and increased sensitivity can occur, making your teeth and gums more sensitive. It is always best to be cautious with new dental procedures during this period and to wait until before or after pregnancy.
