Kanye West spends almost 1 million dollars on titanium grill, did he remove all his teeth?
The artist, who now goes by the name of Ye, posted a photo of his new grill on Instagram
Kanye West, now going by the name Ye, has unveiled a jaw-dropping set of titanium grills worth a staggering $850,000.
The unique dental structure, inspired by Jaws, the iconic villain from James Bond films, caught the attention of social media, sparking
wild speculation about whether Ye had removed his natural teeth.
The groundbreaking dental procedure, described as experimental dentistry, crafted a denture-like structure unique to Ye’s teeth.
The $850,000 prosthodontics were a collaborative effort between Ye and a team of dentists and cosmetic surgeons.
Beverly Hills-based dentist Thomas Connelly, known for his custom dental art for entertainers and athletes, played a pivotal role in
manufacturing the unique model tailored to fit Ye’s vision.
Connelly confirmed, “Ye was a pleasure to work with every step of the process. His vision for designing unique art transcends the
dental progression.”
Dispelling rumors, Connelly affirmed that Ye’s natural teeth remain intact.
“He did not have his teeth removed. He still has a full dentition. Healthy and happy,” he stated.
Dental technician Naoki Hayashi, who worked on the prosthesis, addressed speculations by sharing an article on Instagram that
suggested teeth removal.
On Wednesday, Ye shared a glimpse of his extravagant dental transformation on his Instagram Stories, revealing an open mouth adorned with what seemed to be titanium covered by another material.
Contrary to rumors circulating on social media, a source close to Ye clarified, “The technical term is fixed prosthodontics. They are
fixed and permanent. This goes way beyond veneers or grills. It’s quite unlike anything that has been done before. All that said, his
teeth weren’t removed.”

However, Connelly’s statements and Ye’s history of altering dental designs support the idea that the artist’s teeth are unharmed.
This latest stunt coincides with Ye’s upcoming album collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign titled “Vultures,” adding another layer of intrigue to the artist’s ever-evolving persona.
