How Custom Grillz Are Made: Mold to Mouth
Published · By Vinay Rajani
The full process behind custom teeth grillz: dental mold kits, casting, stone setting and getting that perfect fit.
Step 1: The Mold Kit
After you order, we ship a dental-grade mold kit to your door with putty and trays. You bite in, hold 3 minutes, and ship it back with the prepaid label.
Step 2: Digital Scanning
Your mold is scanned into a 3D model. Every ridge and gap of your teeth is mapped so the grillz snap in perfectly and stay put.
Step 3: Casting
We cast in 925 sterling silver or solid gold depending on your order. Each tooth is shaped individually then joined into the set.
Step 4: The Ice
For VVS sets, each moissanite stone is hand set in prongs. A full 8-tooth set carries 200+ stones, each one placed under magnification.
Step 5: Polish and Ship
High polish finish, quality check, and shipped in a travel case. Total turnaround: 2-3 weeks from the day we receive your mold.

Frequently Asked
Questions About This Piece
What metal options are available for custom grillz casting?
We cast in 925 sterling silver or solid gold depending on the set you order. Each tooth is shaped individually before being joined into a complete set, so the metal choice affects both the look and the weight of your finished grillz.
How does the at-home mold kit actually work?
We ship a dental-grade kit with putty and trays directly to your door. You bite into the tray, hold the impression for three minutes, then ship it back using the prepaid label included in the package — no dentist visit required.
How many moissanite stones are in a VVS grillz set?
A full 8-tooth VVS set carries over 200 individual moissanite stones. Each stone is hand-set in prongs under magnification, which is why the ice looks precise and consistent across every tooth rather than patchy or uneven.
How long does it take to receive finished custom grillz?
Total turnaround is 2 to 3 weeks from the day we receive your mold. That window covers 3D scanning, casting, hand-setting the stones, high-polish finishing, and a quality check before your grillz ship out in a travel case.
Why are custom grillz 3D scanned before they are made?
3D scanning converts your physical mold into a precise digital model that maps every ridge, gap, and curve of your teeth. This ensures the finished grillz snap in securely and stay put without wobbling — a fit that generic sizes simply cannot achieve.
