Commonly Asked Questions

Who are these for?

Our custom fangs and designs are perfect for the film industry, Halloween, cosplay, dress-up parties, or anyone who loves to stand out with a unique look.

Do they look realistic?

Yes! These were originally designed for the film industry, so they look incredibly realistic, even up close and on camera.

Can I request a bespoke design?

Absolutely. We can create custom designs to match your vision. Simply visit our bespoke design request page by clicking here to get started.

Do you offer colour options?

Yes, we offer a range of natural tooth shades to help you achieve the look you want.

How long do they last?

With proper care, they typically last 12–16 months. Longevity depends on usage and how well you maintain them.

Are they safe for kids or teens?

We recommend them for ages 16 and above. For younger users, parental guidance and case-by-case suitability checks are required.

 

Fit & Comfort

How do they stay in place?

They fit just like a dental retainer, clicking on snugly over your teeth. If you haven’t worn one before, think of how a phone case clips on and off.

Are they comfortable?

Yes, most people hardly notice them after a short adjustment period. If your design includes extra features such as fangs or extended parts, you may feel them slightly against your lips or cheeks, but they are designed to be as comfortable as possible.

What are they made of?

We use medical-grade, dental-approved PETG for safety and durability.

Can I talk normally with them in?

Yes. Most people adjust within minutes, and speech quickly becomes natural. Performers, actors, and cosplayers often wear them for hours without issue.

Can I eat with them in?

Technically yes, but we strongly advise against it. Eating can put pressure on the appliance, leading to cracks or breaks, and certain foods or drinks may stain the material over time. For best results and longest lifespan, remove them before meals.

Can I drink with them in?

Yes, but avoid hot, dark or acidic drinks (coffee, wine, cola, fruit juice) as these may cause staining, warping or weaken the material over time. Water is always safe.

Can I kiss with them in?

Yes, you can! They fit securely enough to stay in place.

Can I wear them all day?

You can wear them for extended periods, but we recommend removing them overnight and during meals for comfort and longevity.

 

Care & Maintenance

How do I clean them?

Rinse under lukewarm water after each use and gently brush with a soft toothbrush. Avoid toothpaste or harsh cleaners (they can scratch the surface). Use non-abrasive denture/retainer cleaning tablets for a deeper clean.

Can I use hot water to clean them?

No, hot water can warp or damage the appliance. Always use lukewarm or cool water only.

Can I brush them with toothpaste?

No, never use toothpaste to clean them.

Will they stain or discolour?

Over time, certain drinks (coffee, red wine, cola) or smoking may cause staining. Regular cleaning helps keep them fresh. We also offer shade options, so you can match or refresh your look.

Do I need a storage case?

Yes, we recommend always storing them in the provided protective case when not in use to prevent accidental damage or warping.

How do I prevent them from smelling?

Daily cleaning plus occasional use of retainer cleaning tablets will prevent odour buildup. Always let them dry fully before storing in the case.

International customers may be subject to local import duties, taxes or VAT. These are not included in our shipping fees and must be paid by you upon delivery.

Most couriers will leave a “calling card” with instructions to rebook delivery or collect from your local depot. You can also use the tracking link to choose a safe-place drop or reschedule.

We use plain, unbranded outer packaging for discretion.

What happens if my package is returned to you as “undeliverable”?

If a parcel is returned, we’ll email you to confirm your correct address or arrange re-delivery. Return-to-sender fees (if any) will be waived, but you may need to cover the cost of re-shipping.

  • Courier fault (service disruption, lost in transit): we’ll resend your order free of charge.
What if my parcel is showing as delivered but I didn’t receive it?

First check with neighbours or building reception in case it was left nearby. If you requested your parcel be left in a “safe place,” you do so at your own risk; we are not liable for parcels lost, stolen, or damaged after being marked as delivered without a signature. If you still cannot locate your parcel, contact us within 10 days of the delivery date. We’ll assist where possible, but we cannot guarantee courier investigations beyond this timeframe.
