Ghanaian dentist spoke about how grillz are fixed, as well as the health risks
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, a Ghanaian dentist at the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, Dr Marie Wehpiah, spoke about people going in for accessories such as grillz to enhance their looks.
Speaking about how they are fixed, she said that it depends on the materials used to bond the grillz to the teeth, especially for those who opt for the more temporary option.
"It’s not a big deal but it’s two ways. Some of the grillz, they just attach it to the tooth, and the other, they shave some of your tooth tissue off so the grillz sit well and bond to the tooth. So if you’re looking long term they may do the later. So it depends on how long you’re looking to have it so that it’ll be more retentive in your mouth."
Highlighting the health risks, Dr Wehpiah said that the grillz is a plaque retentive factor in the sense that it makes the teeth prone to holding onto dirt and making it difficult for them to be cleaned.
She also added that grillz are custom-made inorder for them not to affect the occlusion of one's teeth. She said that usually measurements of the mouth are taken and then sent to the lab for the grillz to be made.
She said that once the custom grillz are ready, the teeth are reduced to make room for the grillz. Explaining why that is done, she said that everyone has a normal way of biting and closing the teeth, and any foreign material that enters the mouth could distort that, and when it is prolonged, this could cause pain.
She stated that the reduction would help maintain the occlusion, and even if it changes the occlusion, it would only be minimal.
"So aside the perio, it can also change your occlusion, and cause temporomandibular joint (TMJ) issues. But that’s if they just fit the grillz on your teeth without the reductions of the teeth material."
