Fang Grillz UK: The Complete Guide
Fang grillz are one of the most recognisable and distinctive pieces in custom grillz. A single gold or silver fang cap on a canine tooth changes the entire character of a smile. Here's everything you need to know before ordering.
What Are Fang Grillz?
Fang grillz are custom tooth caps designed to extend the canine teeth (the pointed teeth, one either side of the front four) into elongated fang or vampire-tooth shapes. Unlike standard grillz that follow the natural contour of the tooth, fang grillz add length and a sharpened point, creating a dramatic visual effect.
They are worn over your natural canine teeth — no modification to your actual teeth is required, and they're fully removable. Like all custom grillz, they're fitted from your dental impression and shaped to sit precisely over your specific teeth.
Types of Fang Grillz
Single Fang
One fang cap on a single canine — typically the upper left or upper right. A single gold fang is one of the most minimal and striking grillz choices: one piece, one statement. It's asymmetric, unusual, and impossible to miss.
Double Fangs (Pair)
Both upper canines capped with matching fangs. A matched pair creates symmetry and produces a vampire or wolf aesthetic that's more cohesive than a single piece. Most people ordering fang grillz opt for a pair.
Full Fang Set
Upper canines and lower canines — all four extended. The most dramatic option. Rarely worn for everyday use but popular for music video production, performances, Halloween events, and statement shoots.
Fangs with Open Face Row
A pair of upper fang caps combined with an open face row across the front four or six teeth. The fangs extend beyond the natural tooth line while the front row has a standard open face appearance. This combination is particularly popular — it creates a complete upper-jaw look. See our open face grillz guide.
Iced Fangs
Fang caps with VVS moissanite or lab diamond stone work. Stone-set fangs are most often done with a stone trim along the face or edge of the cap, producing sparkle alongside the dramatic fang shape.
Fang Grillz Metal Options
Yellow gold — the most popular choice for fang grillz. The warmth of gold alongside the dramatic fang shape produces a powerful, organic-feeling aesthetic. See our yellow gold grillz guide.
White gold — cooler and more precise. White gold fangs have a sharper, more metallic quality. See our white gold grillz guide.
Rose gold — warm and distinctive. Rose gold fangs are popular for editorial and fashion contexts. See our rose gold grillz guide.
Sterling silver — the most accessible option. Silver fangs produce a very bright, sharp look. Same tarnish considerations as any silver piece.
How Long Are Fang Grillz?
The fang extension length is customised to your preference and brief. Standard options range from a subtle 2–4mm extension (noticeable but wearable) to dramatic 6–10mm+ extensions for performance or event use.
Longer fangs affect speech more significantly — very long fang extensions (8mm+) are generally impractical for extended daily wear and are typically ordered for specific events or shoots.
We discuss the length in the CAD design stage and show you the proportions before production begins. Nothing goes into production without your approval.
Can I Wear Fang Grillz Every Day?
Shorter fang extensions (2–4mm) are wearable daily with minimal impact on speech. The piece sits over your canine tooth and the added length becomes natural-feeling quickly.
Longer extensions affect speech for the first few days — most people adapt within a week of regular wear. As with all grillz, fang caps should be removed before eating and drinking, and cleaned regularly. See our how to clean grillz guide.

The Fitting Process
Fang grillz follow the same process as all custom pieces: impression kit → mould → CAD design (where you approve the fang length and shape) → casting → delivery.
The CAD stage is particularly important for fang grillz because length and point shape are customisable — you'll see exactly how the finished pieces will look before any metal is cast. See our how grillz are made guide for the full process, and our impression guide for how to take your mould.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are fang grillz the same as vampire grillz? Yes — fang grillz and vampire grillz describe the same thing: custom tooth caps that extend the canine teeth into pointed fang shapes.
Do fang grillz damage teeth? Custom-fitted fang grillz worn correctly don't damage teeth. The cap sits over the natural tooth without pressure points, and the fang extension is cast in solid metal with no sharp edges on the interior. See our are grillz bad for your teeth guide.
Can I get fangs on just one tooth? Yes — a single fang cap on one canine is a very popular choice. Asymmetry is intentional and effective.
How long do fang grillz take to make? The same as any custom piece — typically 3–5 weeks from impression to delivery. See our timeline guide.
Can I get fangs and a regular grill in the same set? Yes — fang caps on the canines alongside an open face or solid row across the front teeth is a popular combination.
Can I choose how pointed or how long the fangs are? Yes — both length and point sharpness are customised in the CAD design stage. We'll show you the proportions before anything is cast.
