"Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself"

La Nuda uses 100% authentic, lead and nickel free Swarovski® crystals. Swarovski® crystals are polished to the highest standards, so that they sparkle like diamonds. They are stain resistant and have a flat back platinum surface. 

The tooth gem application process takes approximately 20 minutes. 

This also depends on the number of gems. 

If all aftercare instructions are followed correctly, the gem will last anywhere between 4-24 months. The natural acidity of your saliva and diet plays a big part in how long an application lasts. If for whatever reason your body was to reject the gem, La Nuda will re-apply at no extra cost (within 60 days of original application - This benefit if for Swarovski round crystas only). 

Yes, you will still be able to undergo a clean! We encourage a routine of good dental hygiene to prevent plaque from building up around the tooth gem. A dentist will easily be able to safely clean around the gem. 

You may develop a discoloured area on the surface of the tooth. Over time, gems may wear away the enamel, increasing the risk of tooth decay and infection. Without proper dental care, such as regular brushing and flossing, tooth jewellery offers convenient hiding places for stray food particles and harmful bacteria. If you have any concerns surrounding this information, please contact your dentist.  

We recommend not eating for at least 1 hour after the application, so please ensure that you eat prior to the appointment. We also recommend that you only eats soft foods for 12 hours after the gem has been applied, as the adhesives need 24 hours to reach maximum strength. It is also best to avoid highly acidic drinks for 12 hours post treatment. 

No, a tooth gem cannot be applied to an artificial tooth surface (such as crowns, caps, veneers, or dentures) as it will not last very long. A tooth gem is recommended on a natural, flat tooth surface to properly enjoy the longevity of your tooth gem. 

Always ensure that you visit a dentist to remove your tooth gem. Please do not attempt to remove the gem at home, as our adhesives are of the highest standards. A dentist will simply remove the diamond and buff/polish the tooth to remove any remaining bonding materials. 

A tooth gem will typically adhere to a tooth for 4-24 months. If a gem loosens and comes away within a few days or weeks, there are a few reasons why!

We get it, having a tooth gem is exciting! 

You may have touched or played with the tooth gem within 24 hours of application. It is important that you do not touch the gem with your finger or tongue, as the adhesives need 24 hours to reach maximum strength. 

You may have snuck in solid foods sooner than advised. Like any other foreign object in or on the body, it is quite possible for a tooth to reject a tooth gem. If this is the case, the gem may fall off quite quickly. 

1. Immediate Care (First 24–48 hours)
Avoid eating hard, sticky, or crunchy foods: These can dislodge the gem before the adhesive fully sets.

Don’t touch or play with the gem: Constant pressure can weaken the bond.

Skip whitening products or harsh toothpaste: They may affect the adhesive.

No smoking or alcohol-based mouthwash: These can interfere with the bonding process.

2. Oral Hygiene
Brush your teeth gently around the gem using a soft-bristled toothbrush.

Floss carefully: Avoid snapping the floss near the gem.

Use non-abrasive toothpaste to prevent loosening the gem or scratching its surface.

Rinse with an alcohol-free mouthwash to keep bacteria at bay.

3. Lifestyle Tips
Avoid biting hard objects (ice, pens, hard candy).

Do not pick at or try to reposition the gem.

Avoid excessive pressure if you grind your teeth—consider a mouthguard if needed.

4. Monitoring
Check the gem daily: If it feels loose, contact the technician or dentist immediately.

If it falls off, do not try to glue it back yourself—this can damage the tooth.

5. Dental Check-ups
Continue routine dental visits to ensure the tooth and enamel remain healthy.

A professional should remove the gem when you're ready; do not try and remove it yourself.
