How to Make Molds by Yourself

Custom-fit grillz require molds to be done properly. To maximize the quality of your grillz and save your time and money of asking a dentist for helps, we are pleased to provide a step-by-step instruction on how to get an impression mold by yourself.

If you already have a mold of your teeth, you can send us that mold, and we will send it back to you once everything is done. Otherwise, please read the instruction carefully before starting.

Please be assured that a return postage/label is not given, so customers are responsible for shipping their molds back to our address per our instruction below.

In each order, we always include extra mold kits, and one standard mold kit shall consist of:

  • 2 putties (2 different colors - white & green/blue).
  • One plastic tray.
  • One zip-lock bag.

Procedure:

The step-by-step procedure is described below:

  • Step 1:

Wash your hands before taking the two putties out of their bags/boxes (It is recommended to wear gloves for preventing dirt and moisture).    

  • Step 2 - 5:

Mix the two putties well together until the mixture turns to one solid color, which is green in this case.

These steps should be done quickly within 1 minute. If you do it slowly, the mixture will get hardened and result in a bad mold. 

  • Step 6:

As soon as the mixture turns into a complete solid color, immediately place the mixture into the tray. Make sure the mixture is spread out evenly over the entire tray and stuck on the tray well.

 

  • Step 7 - 8:

Before you insert the tray into your mouth, make sure you pull out your lip so that the lip will not mess up the mold when you close your mouth.

Open your mouth as wide as possible and evenly insert the tray into your mouth at where you want to wear your grill.

If it is for your top set, face up the tray and put all the way up to cover your entire top teeth..

If it is for your bottom set, face down the tray and put all the way down to cover your entire bottom teeth .  

Then, make sure you bite the tray as tightly as top and bottom teeth are touching the tray for 2 minutes.

Please do not talk or move while doing so.

The point is that we are trying to get a clear gum line where your teeth meet your gum. The more visible the gum line is shown within the mold, the more precise your grill will be.

  • Step 9:

After 3 minutes, open your mouth as wide as you can. Pull out your lip before you pull the tray down lightly if it is for the top set or pull it up lightly if it is for the bottom set.

Then, place the mold into the given zip lock bag, put it in a box and ship it back to our address accordingly as below:
