- STL file
We design custom grillz from intraoral scans or scanned models for jewellers, dental labs and grillz makers — from single-tooth caps to full-arch pieces, open-face or closed, plain polished or prepared for stone settings.
The piece has to look right and come out easily, so retention, wall thickness and gingival clearance are set deliberately, not left to chance. Every grillz case is different, so price and turnaround are quoted on request, depending on the design and the complexity of the case.
What we focus on in every grillz case
Retention. Snug enough to stay, loose enough to remove.
Gingival clearance. No pressure on the soft tissue.
Surface finish. Clean geometry that polishes without distortion.
Speech comfort. Palatal and incisal thickness kept controlled.

How dental grillz are designed
Grillz are a cosmetic overlay, so the design priority is a snug fit on the buccal surfaces without pressing on the gingival margin. The scan is analysed for undercuts, and the internal surface is offset just enough for the piece to slide on and stay put while remaining removable by hand.
The visible surface is then shaped to the requested style — plain polished, textured, open-face, or with settings prepared for stones — with wall thickness kept even so the piece casts or mills cleanly and does not deform in the mouth.
Files are exported ready for casting from a printed pattern or for direct milling in the chosen metal.

Grillz design — frequently asked questions
- What do you need for a grillz design?
- A scan or scanned impression of the arch. Reference photos help with the style, shape and finish you want.
- Can grillz be designed for casting and for printing?
- Yes. The design can be prepared for direct metal printing or for casting from a printed pattern.
- How much does a grillz design cost and how long does it take?
- Price and turnaround are on request. They depend on the design and the complexity of each case, and we confirm both before we start.
- How many revisions are included?
- Revisions are included until you approve the design. Additional redesigns caused by new clinical instructions may be quoted separately.
- Which software do you use, and what do I receive?
- We design in exocad and deliver the stl file, ready to send straight to your mill or printer.
