What is dental gold made of ?

Gold is used in many industrial sectors, but also in medicine. A few years ago, certain treatments required the use of gold teeth. Even though technologies have evolved since then, many people still have gold teeth. You want to sell them ? Here, we tell you more about dental gold!

WHY USE A GOLD TOOTH ?

Dental gold mainly has two functions:

  • Medical care: it allows a tooth to be replaced or a tooth to be reconstructed using a crown. Depending on the color chosen, the tooth blends in perfectly with the rest of the teeth. Dental gold does not turn black, break or oxidize. It is then a guarantee of health, discretion and aesthetics;
  • For the sake of aesthetics: hip hop and rappers launched the fashion for gold teeth and grillz. This bling prosthesis is above all decorative.

The grill adapts to all body shapes. To make these gold grillz, professionals and jewelers take a dental impression then cast, generally using the lost wax method, a piece of gold jewelry. The grills completely cover the teeth for a guaranteed bling effect.

Nowadays, techniques have changed and the use of medical dental gold is becoming increasingly rare. Currently, putting on a gold tooth is therefore synonymous with wealth or the search for style. This is no longer done out of necessity.

WHAT IS THE PRICE OF A GOLD TOOTH ?

A gold tooth is as valuable as any other gold object. To know the buyback price of a gold tooth, you need to know:

  • Its title;
  • Its weight.

Indeed, depending on the gross weight and the quantity of gold used for manufacturing, the value of the jewel differs. The estimate is sent to you according to the gold price in effect on the date of the appraisal. In 2022, the price of an ounce of gold will be around 1,800 euros.
