Getting grillz made in Bangkok: a visitor's guide
A lot of our work is for people who are in Bangkok for a week or two. It works well — as long as the impression happens early in the trip rather than the day before your flight. This is everything worth knowing before you book.

Leave the right amount of time
Book your impression in the first few days of your trip. That leaves room for casting, finishing and — most importantly — a fitting where we can adjust before you leave.
Turnaround depends on the set. Plain silver is fastest; gold takes longer because of casting; anything with hand-set stones takes longest of all. Message us your dates before you fly and we'll tell you honestly what fits into your window.
What to bring to the appointment
You don't need much, but a few things make the session faster and the result closer to what you pictured.
- Reference photos of sets you like — shape, finish, stone coverage.
- A clear idea of which teeth you want covered, or bring questions and we'll advise.
- Your travel dates, so we can plan the fitting around them.
- Clean teeth — brush beforehand; the impression captures whatever is there.
How the appointments run
The impression itself is quick and painless: a soft material in a tray, a couple of minutes of biting gently, done. We discuss design at the same visit — metal, karat, tooth count, finish and stone work — and confirm the price and timeline before any work starts.
The second visit is the fitting. We check the seat on every tooth, look at how it sits when you close and speak, and adjust anything that presses. Never accept a set you haven't tried on.
Flying home with your set
Carry it in your hand luggage in its case, never in checked baggage. It is jewellery, and it is a piece that only fits one person on earth.
Keep the receipt with you. It helps with customs questions if they come up, and it is your record of the metal and stone specification if you ever need repair or valuation later.
If you run out of time
It happens — plans change, trips get cut short. Talk to us before you leave rather than after. Depending on how far along the set is, we can usually finish it and ship it, or arrange a mould kit so the impression stays valid.
The one thing that never works is rushing a fitting on the way to the airport. A set that has not been checked in your mouth is a set that may never get worn.
Questions people ask
Can I get grillz made in one day in Bangkok?
Same-day work means either a pre-made set or a rushed fit. For custom work, plan on multiple visits across several days — the fitting appointment is the part you cannot skip.
Do I need to speak Thai?
No. We work in English and Thai, and this whole site is available in both.
