$5 DIY Cosmetic Dentistry

This will be very unpopular with dentists. Cost about $5, takes about 35-40 minutes. The Sculpey / FIMO teeth actually hold up pretty well, but they have to be be baked exactly as directed. Some of us may have seen how stronger teeth can be made by making a clay or alginate mold of the teeth, making a positive using some casting powder and sculpting new teeth onto the positive using acrylic resin and powder, finishing with a dremel tool. This is the ghetto version of that. The resin teeth would have taken too long to make and they were too expensive for me for what I wanted at the time. Perhaps later I will give it a go.

Ugh, trying to piece together this old footage. I was really terrible back then, but I don’t want to redo the video!

    Haha dude you may have saved my life with this video lol. My dentist just told me that I need two crowns at a cost of 800 dollars each. This may just be the temporary solution that I was looking for until I can find another job with insurance : ) You’re awesome. BTW, can you eat with the fake teeth in? My guess would be no. Also, I’m not sure if I’ll try that glue lol.

    Thanx!

    This is cool. Where do you buy this stuff and is it extremely white after it’s done. I’ve used home bleaching kits before but they don’t give you pearly whites like the claims.

    to make thiem look more realistic, you should get paints like brown gray white and mix them all together to get a shade that is around the color of teeth, once you get the color right you shcould dip the teeth in there to stain them but kep watching them or you might get a different color thatn you would really want

    Thanks. I thought they came out fine for the price. Not sure why it got so down-rated. I mean what do they expect, they’re $5 (well maybe $2 some places. everything is expensive here) Or dentists don’t like the video. Yeah that must be it. =)

    It’s just like denture adhesive only stonger, lasts longer. The site says its non-toxic. Not recommended because it bonds underwater and some idiot will probably glue their lips together or something.
