Dental Salon Provides Crooked-Vampire Teeth for the Sake of Fashion

Indeed, there is a dental salon located in Tokyo, which helps young girls get the “crooked teeth” look. Through a dental cosmetic procedure, the canines of young girls are being sharpened and elongated, in order to go with a trend called “Yaeba”.

All throughout the world, people pay hefty fees at the dentist to have their canines straightened, since crooked teeth are considered an imperfection.

In Japan on the other hand, young girls with perfect dentures visit this salon in order to have their teeth look crooked and imperfect.

In Japanese, the word “yaeba” actually means double teeth, and it does not refer to a medical condition, but rather to getting one’s teeth look like that of a vampire.

Several sources say that with the help of yaeba, girls will get that “feline look”, which supposedly is extremely attractive. Others state that girls with such imperfection are much more accessible, compared to the perfection that is being advertised on the covers of the magazines worldwide.

In Japan, one can see even several celebrities who instead of actually fixing the crooked teeth with braces will proudly show them off in front of the camera.

Since it is a huge trend, it is regarded in a very positive light, and not as an imperfection. In the past few years, “yaeba” has been a very popular trend in Japan.

There is a dental salon available in Tokyo, where girls can go through this cosmetic dental procedure. The salon is called “Plaisir Dental Salon”, and it is located in the Ginza district. Here the medical staff performs a huge variety of such dental cosmetic procedures.

The yaeba procedure is performed with the help of artificial teeth which are glued to the natural tooth, using a special adhesive.

Thus, after this artificial “vampire” like tooth is attached, the canines will look longer, sharper and will stand out. Quite recently, a TV show host from Japan has visited the salon in order to report how the yaeba is done… and the reporter ended up with a pair of vampire like canine teeth herself.
