There's a new trend in town and it's all about flaunting faux braces. Middle school memories of old-school metal are now a thing of the past, with fancier braces becoming a sought-after accessory among fashionistas. From DIY kits on Etsy to online vendors like V'Adorned, these trendy teeth decorations have drawn Gen Z’ers, as well as celebs like rapper Coi Leray to the trend.
But beware: Since these braces are reportedly not put on by licensed professionals, they could contain dangerous metals. While some may think they may look cool, orthodontists warn of potential health risks, including tooth decay, mouth sores, and even a choking hazard.
