Why do some girls in eastern Germany have a gemstone on their tooth?
1) They think they can impress people with this. It is not just in Eastern Germany. It might be dangerous for their teeth though, especially in the case of permanent tooth gems. The biggest problems occur when you want to remove them. 2) “Before using any clue or adhesive on your teeth ask your dentist.” “Tooth Gem is a semi-permanent fashion statement. Tooth Gems are stuck on to one tooth to give a sparkle when you smile.” Source and further information: http://www.tooth-gems.com/tooth-gem-glue/ “Permanent tooth gems are the same appearance and designs as semi-permanent tooth gems. The procedure however is slightly different and more harmful to the tooth and enamel.
