Kanye West, the famous rapper, has reportedly replaced all of his teeth with a set of titanium dentures. The new silver smile was shown off by the artist himself in a photo uploaded to Instagram Stories. In a follow-up post, he even shared a screenshot of a Google results page for James Bond villain Jaws, who sported similar dentures. According to reports, West’s unusual mouthpiece, which he designed himself, cost $850,000 to create. Dr. Thomas Connelly, who fitted the dentures, said that he was a pleasure to work with on the project.
The dentist also revealed that West’s new look was designed to be a unique work of art that transcended conventional dental technology. He further added that West’s vision in combining art with dental science had created an epic new look. Connelly fitted the accessory with Naoki Hayashi, a Master Dental Technician, in Beverly Hills, California. During an earlier appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, West had claimed that he had replaced his bottom row of teeth with diamond and gold implants.
However, West’s past claims of replacing his teeth had been met with skepticism from his fans. Moreover, several fashion brands, including Balenciaga and Adidas, had ended their partnerships with West in 2022 following multiple allegations of anti-Semitism against the artist. But Adidas sold the first batch of leftover Yeezy stock last summer, raising $437 million for charity. Over Christmas, West apologized to the Jewish community for his previous anti-Semitic comments.
