As experienced jewelers focusing on crafting custom gold grillz, we frequently hear the same question: how long does it take to make grillz? In this article we walk through each step of the process, from choosing your design to the day your set ships, so you know what to expect and why custom work takes the time it does.
Crafting custom gold grillz starts with your design. You choose the style, the metal and karat, the number of teeth and any stones, and every product page shows the price before you check out. If you are unsure which style suits you, our team is happy to help before you order.
If we need more detail to build your piece, for example how you want a stone pattern laid out, we will contact you. Your estimate pauses while we wait for your answer, so quick replies keep things moving.
Every custom set is made from an impression of your own teeth, so the mold step comes first. When you order, we send you a mold kit (or a prepaid label if you choose to send your own molds). The kit comes with instructions for taking impressions at home, and you mail them back to us with the prepaid return label.
The quality of your molds directly affects the fit of your grillz, so please follow the instructions closely. We check every set when it arrives, and if your molds can't be used we will email you and explain what to do next. The estimated ship time starts when we receive molds we can use, which is why clear, complete impressions save you time.
Taking impressions is quick and does not involve any dental procedure. Grillz are removable cosmetic jewelry, not dental treatment, and we are not dentists.
Once your molds are approved, our jewelers make your piece to match them. The metal is shaped, then polished and finished, and any stones are set. Iced styles and complex designs (opal, enamel or 3D work) involve more steps, which is why they take longer than solid styles.
Careful finishing matters as much as the casting. Rough edges are smoothed away so the grillz feel comfortable and the metal shines the way it should.
Before your grillz ship, our team inspects each piece for imperfections and checks the workmanship. Our Limited Warranty covers fit and workmanship once your order is delivered, and the details are in our Refund Policy.
Now that you understand the process, here is the answer to the big question. Solid styles are estimated to ship 3-5 weeks after we receive your usable molds; iced styles and complex designs (opal, enamel or 3D work) 4-6 weeks. Custom pendants and made-to-order jewelry are estimated to ship 4-6 weeks after you approve your design (or after you order, for pieces with no design step).
These are estimates, not guarantees. The estimate pauses while we're waiting on you, for example for design details or a balance due. Shipping time to your door comes after the estimated ship time, and our shipping policy explains how each estimate is counted. If you have a date in mind, contact us before you order and we will tell you what looks realistic.
One common question is whether we use real gold and silver in grillz. The answer is yes. We work with genuine gold and silver, and the gold alloys we use contain varying percentages of gold depending on the karat you choose.
Our silver grillz are made from solid sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver. We use real precious metals so your grillz look great and stand the test of time.
Placing an order for your custom gold grillz is straightforward. Choose your design and options on the product page, add it to your cart and check out. We then send your mold kit, you mail your molds back, and once we have usable molds your estimate starts. We email you a tracking number when your finished piece ships.
Questions along the way? Our team will guide you through each step, from the mold kit to delivery.
Custom gold grillz are more than dental accessories; they express personal style and individuality. Creating these unique pieces involves a mold-kit step, careful craftsmanship and finishing, and an estimated 3-5 weeks of work after we receive your usable molds (4-6 weeks for iced styles and complex designs).
If you are considering custom gold grillz, we invite you to browse our custom grillz and contact our team with any questions. We look forward to making a piece that fits you and your style.
