What are some common styles of beautifully embellished teeth?
There are four common styles: a small stone on the canine tooth, a small stone on the front tooth, a stone on the incisor, and several small stones placed together. Try to see which style attracts you the most, as the feeling of ""instant liking"" when seeing the picture is usually a fairly reliable sign.
A small stone on the canine tooth
This is the style we see most often at Dental Fam. The stone is located at the corner of the smile, only visible when you smile or talk, so the accent is subtle and not too flashy. If you want something a little different but still natural for school or work, this style is a safe choice.
A small stone on the front tooth
Front teeth are already a charming feature for many people, so adding a small stone will make that charm even more prominent. This style suits those who already have canine teeth and want to ""embellish"" them instead of hiding them. We'll discuss canine teeth in more detail at the end of the article.
One stone on the front tooth
The front teeth are located right in the middle of the smile, so the stone here is the first thing people see. Therefore, this style is usually for those who like to stand out and are confident in their style. If you want something more subtle, the side front teeth will be more discreet than the central front teeth.
Several small stones placed together
Some people like to attach two or three small stones to create a sparkling cluster. This style feels more ""purposeful,"" but also means the cost increases with the number of stones, as the price is per stone. If you're unsure, you can start with one stone and consider more later.
Now that you know which style you like, the next question is quite natural: which tooth should the stone be placed on?
Which tooth looks best with a dental gem?
Canine and premolar teeth are the two most popular choices at Dental Fam, while front teeth are suitable if you want a more prominent accent. Each location gives a different feeling, so the best way to choose is to think about when you want others to see the gem.
| Position | Prominence | Who it suits |
| Canine teeth | Discreet, visible when smiling | Those who want to be different but still natural |
| Canine teeth | Discreet to moderate, creating a charming look | Those with canine teeth who want to emphasize their existing charm |
| Side incisors | Moderate | Those who prefer subtle prominence |
| Central incisors | Most prominent | Those who like to stand out and be confident with their own style |
The table above is a suggestion to help you visualize; the actual result depends on the shape of your teeth, your smile line, and your personal preferences. When you visit Dental Fam, the dentist will observe your smile and suggest a suitable position, but the final decision is yours. We don't have specific recommendations for the left or right side, so just choose whichever side suits you best.
Once you've chosen your teeth, you'll face another small but often confusing choice: what color, shape, and size of the stone.
Which color, shape, and size of stone suits you?
Dental Fam has a wide variety of stones in different colors, shapes, and sizes, so you can choose directly at the clinic. You don't need to decide everything before you come.
Our usual suggestion is to bring a few photos of the stones you like, then we'll look at the actual stones and compare them to your teeth. Online photos are sometimes edited or close-ups, so seeing them in person will help you avoid disappointment. If you want a gentle smile, prioritize smaller stones. If you want something more striking, larger stones or unique shapes will draw more attention.
Please remember that Dental Fam only uses stones from our clinic and does not accept stones you bring in, so you will choose from the types we have available.
Which style should you choose if this is your first time getting dental rhinestones?
For your first time, start with a small rhinestone on your canine or front tooth. The simple reason is that you have time to get used to it, and you'll still see a noticeable change in your smile.
You might fall into one of three common situations:
-
You work in an office and still want a neat appearance. A small rhinestone on your canine is almost only visible when you smile, so colleagues and bosses won't find it ""overdone.""
-
You're a student and want to try something new but are hesitant about what others think. A small rhinestone on your front tooth is both charming and easy to adapt to.
-
You're preparing for a special occasion like a party or photoshoot. A small rhinestone on your front tooth or two or three small rhinestones will create a more prominent focal point in the photo.
The above three situations are suggestions to help you visualize, not a fixed rule. At Dental Fam, if you're still hesitant, we'll show you the options in person, and you can choose a few stones first, then consider your options later. Remember that the stones can be removed, so your first choice isn't your final choice.
Before choosing a style, what do you need to know about safety and cost?
Not all teeth can have stones attached immediately, and the price is per stone: 2,000,000 VND per stone. These two things should be clearly understood before you decide on a style.
Regarding safety, the tooth needs to be healthy enough at the attachment site. If there are cavities or gum inflammation, we will treat them before attaching the stones. You can read more about the potential impact on teeth in the article ""Is drilling teeth for stones harmful?"".
Regarding cost, attaching multiple stones will be calculated by multiplying the unit price by the number of stones; there is no discount based on the number of stones. The consultation fee of 100,000 VND is waived if you use any of Dental Fam's services after the consultation. A more detailed price list is available in the article ""How much does tooth gem placement cost?"".
Quick Q&A about choosing tooth gem placement styles
How long does one gem placement session take?
Approximately 15 to 20 minutes per session. You can schedule an appointment.
Can I bring my own gems?
Dental Fam does not accept customer-provided gems. We only use gems from our clinic, at a single price.
Is there a warranty if the gem falls out?
Dental Fam does not provide a warranty for lost gems. This is because we cannot control your daily cleaning and usage habits.
In Summary
To achieve a beautiful smile with dental rhinestones, choose the placement according to your desired level of prominence: canine or premolar teeth for a subtle look, front teeth for a more striking effect, and start with a small stone if it's your first time. You can choose the color, shape, and size of the stone directly at the clinic.
