What Are Tooth Gems?
Tooth gems are small decorative accessories applied to the surface of a tooth to enhance its appearance. They are purely cosmetic and will not alter the function of your tooth. These gems, which are often made from crystals, diamonds, gold charms, or semi-precious stones, are manually attached using dental-safe adhesives. The application process is simple and painless, similar to how braces brackets are bonded to teeth. Tammy will first ensure that the tooth is clean and healthy before applying a strong bonding material and then placing the gem on top. Tooth gems can last anywhere from a few months to a couple of years, depending on factors like your oral hygiene and individual mouth chemistry.

Candidates for Tooth Gems
Tooth gems are a fun, stylish way to elevate your smile, and they’re perfect for individuals looking for a unique, non-invasive aesthetic enhancement. This treatment is ideal for those who enjoy expressing their personality through accessories, beauty trends, and customized looks. Candidates for tooth gems should have healthy teeth and gums, as the application process requires a smooth enamel surface for secure bonding. Those who maintain good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups are more likely to enjoy long-lasting results. However, individuals with severe enamel wear, active cavities, or orthodontic appliances should consult with a professional before opting for a gem application.
At DrSkin Med Spa, Tammy Conley, RDA, provides expert application and guidance to ensure you receive a safe, personalized, and beautifully enhanced smile. During your consultation, we’ll help determine if tooth gems are the right fit for you.
How Are Tooth Gems Applied in Scottsdale, AZ at DrSkin Med Spa?
At DrSkin Med Spa, we prioritize precision and safety in every Tooth Gem application, ensuring a seamless experience with dazzling results. Before the procedure, Tammy Conley, RDA, conducts a thorough consultation to understand your aesthetic goals and assess the health of your teeth. This ensures the best placement and longevity of your gem.
To begin with, the selected tooth is carefully cleaned and dried to remove any impurities or moisture, allowing for optimal adhesion. A gentle etching solution is applied to create a slightly textured surface, enhancing the bond between the tooth and the gem. Next, a dental-safe bonding agent is placed on the tooth, followed by the precise positioning of your chosen gem—whether it’s a Swarovski crystal, gold charm, or diamond accent.
Once the gem is in place, a curing light is used to harden the adhesive, securing the gem for long-lasting wear. The process is quick, painless, and non-invasive, with most applications taking just 15 to 30 minutes.
After the procedure, Tammy ensures the gem is properly set and provides aftercare instructions to maintain its brilliance. You can resume normal activities immediately, but you should avoid sticky or hard foods in the first few hours to ensure the best results. With proper care, your tooth gem can last several months to over a year, adding a radiant touch to your smile.

Phoenix Tooth Gem FAQs
Are tooth gems bad for your teeth?
Tooth gems are generally safe when applied by a professional, but they can pose risks like plaque buildup, enamel wear, or gum irritation if not properly maintained. Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups help keep your smile healthy.
Can I still eat hard food with a tooth gem?
Yes, but with caution! While tooth gems are securely bonded, biting into hard or sticky foods can increase the risk of loosening or dislodging them. To keep your gem intact, it’s best to avoid excessive pressure on the area and opt for softer foods when possible. Regular oral hygiene also helps maintain its longevity.
How many tooth gems can I have?
There’s no strict limit on how many tooth gems you can have, but most people opt for one to a few for a stylish, balanced look. Some choose multiple gems across several teeth for a bold, statement design. The key is to ensure proper placement and maintaining good oral hygiene to prevent plaque buildup and enamel wear.
Will tooth gems irritate my gums or tongue?
Tooth gems should not irritate your gums or tongue if applied correctly by a professional. However, if placed too close to the gumline, they may cause mild irritation or inflammation. Additionally, some people may feel a slight roughness on their tongue when first adjusting to the gem, but this typically fades over time as you get used to it.
Are tooth gems easy to remove if I decide I no longer want one?
Yes, tooth gems can be easily and safely removed by a dentist. The process is quick and painless, with the gem being gently lifted off and the tooth polished to remove any remaining adhesive. While some DIY methods exist, professional removal is the only recommended way to protect your enamel and prevent damage.
What if my tooth gem breaks off and I swallow it?
If you accidentally swallow a tooth gem, don’t panic—it’s usually not a medical emergency. Tooth gems are small and smooth, meaning they typically pass through your digestive system naturally without causing harm. However, if you experience severe abdominal pain, difficulty swallowing, or persistent coughing, it’s best to seek medical attention. To help things move along, drink plenty of water and eat normally; your body will know what to do!
