How long will a tooth gem stay on my tooth?
A permanent or semi-permanent tooth gem applied professionally can last anything up to a year. The length of time that the gem stays attached generally depends on the habits of the wearer. Excessive stress applied to the gem will obviously cause the gem to fall off sooner. Eating particularly crunchy, chewy or sticky food is one way in which the gem may loose attachment faster. Excessive force when brushing the teeth may also reduce the amount of time the gem lasts " this is not to say however that, if your dental hygiene routine is good and effective, you should change it. Your dental hygiene should always come before fashion.
If you have a removable tooth gem then the length of time the gem will last really depends on the wearer; how often they wear the gem and how well they look after it. It would be hard to give an estimate in this case.
