"Disgusting Looks and Smell"… Kanye's Wife Complains Unexpectedly After Visiting Korea

Complaints of Pain from 1.1 Billion Won Dental Accessories
Recent Trend of Tooth Gems Among MZ Generation

Bianca Sensory (29), the wife of Kanye West (47), an American hip-hop musician who recently visited Korea, has expressed her distress over her husband's grillz (dental accessories). On the 5th (local time), the U.S. entertainment media Intertwikly reported that Bianca is struggling because of Kanye West's 'grillz.' Grillz are removable dental accessories decorated with jewels such as diamonds and gold. In Kanye's case, his grillz were made from titanium.

Earlier in January, Kanye unveiled new titanium grills. The grills, which sparkle from his teeth every time Kanye smiles brightly, are reported to cost about $850,000 (approximately 1.13 billion KRW) and were fitted by a famous Beverly Hills dentist and dental technician.

Bianca said, "I tell Kanye that the grillz look cool, but honestly, I find the shape of Kanye's teeth disgusting." She especially mentioned, "Kanye often has bad breath because he doesn't take care of his grillz," adding, "I want to gag just by getting close to his lips, let alone his tongue." When wearing grillz like Kanye, extensive care is necessary to maintain the teeth. However, according to reports, Kanye does not always follow the dentist's instructions. An insider said, "He has never had good hygiene," and "Because he has never managed his dental hygiene, he often has bad breath."

He continued, "Bianca has no way to speak honestly, so she has to hold her breath and endure it," revealing, "Kanye is emotionally very unstable. If Bianca speaks honestly, he will surely lose control of his anger." Since marrying Kanye at the end of 2022, Bianca has been involved in several controversies due to her revealing outfits.

Toothgem, an MZ Generation Item, Causes Tooth Discoloration and Cavities

Earlier in January, Kanye unveiled new titanium grillz. The grillz, which sparkle from his teeth every time he smiles brightly, reportedly cost about $850,000 (approximately 1.13 billion KRW) and were fitted by a famous Beverly Hills dentist and dental technician. He did not specify why he chose to wear titanium teeth but shared a photo of himself wearing titanium teeth alongside an image of the notorious James Bond villain on his account.

As dental accessories like grillz become trendy, including Kanye's style, meticulous care is essential to maintain teeth with grillz and toothgem. Toothgem is a compound word of tooth and gem, referring to a procedure where jewelry such as cubic zirconia is attached to teeth using dental adhesive.

Meanwhile, toothgem has recently become a popular fashion item symbolizing 'hip-hop' among the MZ generation. However, both toothgem and grillz can damage teeth and gums during attachment and removal. Especially, if toothgem falls off due to eating or external impact, it can cause tooth fracture (damage to the hard tissue of the tooth due to trauma). The enamel on the tooth surface can also be artificially damaged, increasing the risk of dental caries. On the other hand, grillz, besides being made from metals used for gold or dentures, can cause tooth discoloration if the plating peels off. Moreover, eating while wearing grillz can trap food debris between them, making it easy for bacteria to grow and cause cavities.

Therefore, when using toothgem and grillz, it is important to wear products that fit your teeth and manage them carefully. Above all, continuous use of toothgem can cause tooth movement, adversely affecting dental occlusion. If discomfort such as bleeding gums or tooth sensitivity occurs while brushing after wearing accessories, it is important to get a checkup and treatment promptly.
