Short answer: they can be… if you’re wearing the wrong kind.
THE PROBLEM
Most grillz are just metal sitting directly on your teeth.
That can lead to:
- bacteria getting trapped
- irritation
- long-term damage
Not cute.
THE FIX
There is a safer way to wear grillz.
Protective Mouth Grillz (PMG) have a thin protective layer inside that sits between your teeth and the metal.
So you still get the look… without risking your teeth.

Dentist-approved?
Yes.
Dr. Bianca Adams has actually offered this product to patients.
That’s a big deal — dentists don’t co-sign things that mess up your teeth.

So… are grillz bad?
- Regular grillz → can be bad
- Protective Mouth Grill → made to protect your teeth
