Grills Education

Music mogul "Nelly" talks about them in his hit song "Grillz". It seems like everybody in the rap and hip hop world is talking about grillz. But what exactly are grillz? Read on and educate yourself!

Grillz or grills is mouth jewelry that is applied over the teeth. Sometimes grillz are soldered together, but the best ones are constructed from a solid one-piece metal, such as brass. Grills can be plated with a precious metal such as gold or platinum. For the platinum look, grillz are covered with the more cost-friendly and durable Rhodium plating, which is desirable for it's platinum-like luster and it's excellent resistance to corrosion. Grills can be manufactured into various styles, from plain traditional gold to unique vampire inspired creations.

For that really flashy look, grillz are often adorned with ice. What is this "ice", you wonder? Glad you asked! Like the term "bling", it's a hip word for diamonds. Although some grills do sport real diamonds, costing into the hundreds or sometimes thousands of dollars, many grillz are iced-out with premium cubic zirconias and austrian crystals, which make for a more financially attainable choice for those wanting grillz. The ice can come in a variety of colors, with clear, blue and pink being popular choices.

Since everybody's mouth is unique and different, some grills companies make you go through a molding and casting process to get just the right fit for your mouth. This type of fitting procedure sometimes take weeks and can be expensive. However, the latest grills technology bypasses all that and makes "instant grillz" possible. Using a special silcon molding piece called a "fixing bar", our grills instantly and perfectly mold to your mouth in just minutes, whether your'e a kid or an adult! Instant grillz are the easiest and fastest way to a mouthful of bling.

Wearing grillz is a way for anyone to make a loud fashion statement. Even the ladies are getting into the dazzle with Hulk Hogan's daughter, Brooke Hogan, showing off her tight grills in her music video "About Us". Owning a pair of grills tells everybody that, like Nelly and Brooke Hogan, "you made it". Grillz have become powerful status symbols in the rap and hip-hop community and beyond.

The fantastic news is that you don't have to be a millionaire rap star to bling out your mouth. Now grills are within the reach of anyone. With a little reasearch, you can find reputable grillz dealers online.
