In recent years, denture jewelry has become a popular trend among denture wearers who want to add a touch of individuality and style to their smiles. Just like body jewelry or cosmetic accessories, denture jewelry allows you to express yourself in a fun and fashionable way — all while wearing your dentures comfortably.

If you’re curious about what denture jewelry is, how it works, and whether it’s right for you, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.

What Is Denture Jewelry?

Denture jewelry refers to decorative accessories that can be attached to dentures. These embellishments come in various styles, including gems, crystals, gold or silver studs, and even custom designs that fit the shape and size of your dentures.

Unlike traditional tooth gems placed on natural teeth, denture jewelry is specially designed to be safe and removable without damaging the denture or affecting its fit.

Popular Types of Denture Jewelry

• • • Rhinestone or crystal studs: Small, sparkling stones that catch the light and add glamour.
    • Gold or silver accents: Tiny metallic studs or designs for a subtle shine.
    • Custom engraved charms: Personalized designs that can be attached or embedded into the denture base.
    • Colored designs: Adding colorful motifs or patterns to the denture surface for a bold statement.

How Is Denture Jewelry Applied?

Denture jewelry is usually affixed to the acrylic base of the denture using specialized dental adhesives that do not harm the material. The jewelry is placed carefully so it doesn’t interfere with the bite or cause discomfort.

It’s important that denture jewelry installation is done by a professional denturist or dental technician to ensure the jewelry stays secure and the denture remains functional.

Benefits of Denture Jewelry

• • • Personal Expression: Denture jewelry gives you a unique way to personalize your smile and showcase your personality.
    • Boosts Confidence: Many wearers report feeling more confident and stylish with customized dentures.
    • Non-Permanent: Since the jewelry is removable, you can change or remove it anytime without affecting your dentures.
    • Conversation Starter: Denture jewelry is a fun accessory that can spark conversations and compliments.

Things to Consider Before Getting Denture Jewelry

• • • Durability: While designed to be secure, denture jewelry can be damaged or lost if dentures are dropped or handled roughly.
    • Maintenance: You will need to clean your dentures carefully to avoid loosening or damaging the jewelry.
    • Comfort: Proper placement is essential to ensure the jewelry doesn’t cause irritation or discomfort in your mouth.
    • Cost: Prices vary depending on the materials and customization, so discuss your budget with your denturist.

Caring for Dentures with Jewelry

• • • Use a soft brush and mild denture cleanser to clean around the jewelry.
    • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can damage the adornments.
    • Remove jewelry periodically if recommended by your denturist to clean thoroughly.
    • Store dentures safely in a denture case when not wearing them.
