Vampire Fangs Trend

You may have listened recently to Dracula Tame Impala’s new hit, or watched Sydney Sweeney and Megan Fox in the Netflix film Night Teeth, and thought vampire Teeth are cool, let’s have it. 

Vampire teeth may be one of those Gen Z-Alpha trends, a cool look that younger people can achieve with snap-on veneers in that shape.

Canines are in your smile zone area, the second most prominent teeth, while you are smiling, laughing, eating, and talking. Canines are special teeth in your mouth, as they are called the “corners of the mouth.” They support the jawbone and the shape of the lips, and they lift your facial muscles and cheeks. They participate in defining your smile.

On the other hand, fictional shows have presented that vampire canines, in the upper and lower jaws, are long, pointed, slender, and thin at their tips. They are so sharp that they can cut human beings and easily pierce their skin. Also, they are white and attractive, symbolizing much power and dominance. 

But is it a good idea to change your real teeth into that vampire tooth’s shape? Here are our experts’ answers to you in detail.

Types of Vampire Teeth Trends

Social media trends on TikTok and Instagram are filled with before-and-after photos of people who have undergone cosmetic dental transformation from their normal teeth to vampire fangs.

There are some reversible ways to get the vampire fangs and irreversible ons which are not safe for your healthy teeth.

Removable dental fangs 

OTC vampire teeth

They are over-the-counter OTC fake fangs you can order from Amazon or online stores like Scarecrowvampires, where you can order online the fangs and snap them on your canine, the same thing as snap-on veneers.

They differ from classic small caps that snap on your canine, to hand-painted caps that can be painted in the same shades as your teeth to perfectly match your teeth color, as if they are natural.

There are also Retractable Fangs, which are mechanical mouthpieces worn as snap-ons. You can control the fangs to appear and retract by biting on molar-shaped buttons, adding some suspense and excitement.

DIY vampire fangs 

Custom-made dental fangs, they are still fake removable fangs, but you made them yourself with a custom mold as a reference, using suitable dental materials like resin beads.

Vampire Grills 

You can also get custom metal fangs made from silver, gold, or diamond, and fitted to your front teeth, like rappers and actors who wear grills.

Permanent dental fangs 

Modern cosmetic dentistry helps alter your smile completely according to your needs and expectations. If you want  to change your natural teeth shape into vampire teeth like in the Night Teeth Movie, you have several options:

Composite Bonding Restoration 

Composite bonding in Turkey is a cost-effective cosmetic dental treatment that can easily reshape your teeth in one visit to the dentist.

Teeth microabrasion is better done before composite bonding for better dental bonding to the tooth surface. Also, it’s better to get composite veneers to cover the whole canine front surface to perfectly match the shade of the resin fangs.

After teeth cleansing and microabrasion, a dental etchant and a bonding agent are applied, then polymerized by a light-curing device, and then the composite bonding is applied layer by layer to reshape and contour the tooth-colored resin in the shape of long, sharp, pointed fangs.

After curing, finishing, and polishing, you can go on with these permanent resin fangs in your daily routine for like 3 to 7 years.

You can easily reverse the composite fangs by visiting the dentist and reshaping them again, or replacing them with the natural shape of teeth with composite veneers. That’s why composite veneers for vampire fangs are a semi-permanent and more conservative professional solution.

Dental Veneers 

You can get fixed permanent vampire fangs cemented to your natural teeth with dental veneers, made of the best veneer brands like porcelain, Emax, Empress, and Zirconia veneers. The shape of veneers can be modified in the dental lab to meet the smile design you prefer.

Dental laminates and veneers are stronger, more esthetic, and more attractive than composite fangs, but veneers minimally need a 0.3- 0.5 mm reduction of the tooth structure to prepare enough space for the veneers’ bonding.

Dental crown 

Dental crown restoration needs enough space to be placed and cover the full tooth crown, which is why it needs full tooth preparation from all surfaces. 

Ceramic crowns like Emax crowns and zirconia crowns are strong, hard dental caps for the teeth to protect from recurrent caries, tooth fracture, extensive dental filling, and other recommendations.

To get fixed vampire teeth, you can get ceramic crowns. They are milled via CAD/CAM system, so they can be easily shaped and milled into a vampire-shaped pointed crown to cap the canines completely and permanently.
Emax crowns can stay in function in the patient’s mouth up to 10 years, while zirconia crowns have a longer lifespan because they are a tougher material, lasting from 10-15 years with good oral hygiene.

Why are vampire fangs not healthy for your teeth?

To get permanent vampire fangs, you have three dental treatment options, which are composite bonding, dental veneers, and dental crowns. But why may your dentist warn you when you make such a decision?

Dentists see that permanent cosmetic restoration that needs teeth shaving and removal of a certain amount of tooth structure is recommended for certain conditions that surely need tooth removal. 

However, vampire fang trends are not recommended or essential for irreversible teeth shaving. There are some risks and drawbacks to be considered:

1. Tooth structures removed for the placement of the dental crowns are irreversible and cannot be undone.
2. Irreversible harm to your healthy teeth by removing sound tooth structure to create space for the permanent fixation of the dental crowns 
3. Wearing removable vampire fangs can trap food debris and initiate gingival inflammation (gingivitis), and make your gums bleed when you brush your teeth.
4. The finish line between the fitting surfaces of the removable fangs can accumulate calculus and cause gingival pockets.
5. Bite alteration because of the unusual length of the canines 
6. Recurrent lip biting with the unfamiliar, lengthy vampire crowns can cause lip inflammation and ulcers.

Your smile is a personal reflection of yourself, and at Suave Clinic, you can get the perfect smile that truly reflects your inner charm and beauty with the digital smile designs and workflows, and CAD/CAM systems for crafting ceramic veneers and crowns precisely and according to the desired digital design.

How to get vampire fangs without harming your teeth? 

Removable vampire fangs would be fun for attractive trends and cosplays, but need meticulous hygiene if you are going to snap them on your teeth for a long period of time 

• Brushing your teeth carefully with fluoridated toothpaste at least twice daily 
• Flossing with a dental floss to avoid food packing in between your gums
• Put down the snap-on dental fangs before eating and sleeping.
• Don’t wear the vampire fangs if their fitting surface is rough, smelly, or has changed color.
• Regular dental check-ups help avoid gingivitis and tartar accumulation on your teeth.
• Professional dental cleaning helps teeth appear healthy and clean.
• Many dentists around the world warn of the permanent alteration of teeth into vampire fangs, as the teeth shaving is irreversible, and destroys the enamel and dentin of your healthy teeth for the vampire capping.
