Fitting & Compatibility
Create a custom fit for your FX Teeth using hot water and the included fitting material. Once fitted, you can easily snap them in and out anytime, anywhere.
FX Teeth are designed for costume and performance use only. They are not dental devices.
The standard fitting method may not be suitable if you have crowns, caps, dentures, braces or other orthodontic appliances. If any of these apply to you, please contact us before ordering. We can then assess whether an alternative fitting option may be possible for your individual situation.

A little extra
Every smile tells a story…
Our interpretation of Jennifer Baxter's baseball zombie in Land of the Dead, Dead Ringer Teeth belong to a player who never left the field, even after the living called the game. There is something stubbornly human in this ruined grin: an old habit, a familiar stance, and a hunger that has outlasted every rule.
Uneven, yellowed teeth and dark staining along the gumline create a neglected, weathered appearance. The lower sculpt extends down and around one side to support a missing-lip or cheek illusion, exposing far more of the smile than anyone should see. A grounded set for shambling ballplayers, street-worn undead, and survivors whose humanity is wearing thin.
Handcrafted in Our Studio
Each set is sculpted, cast, stained, and finished entirely by hand in our independent studio. No two sets are ever exactly alike. Subtle variations are part of the craft, bringing authenticity and individual character to every piece, and making every set uniquely yours.
Comfortable Fit for Extended Wear
Our flexible veneer-style FX Teeth can be shaped with hot water to follow the arch of your natural teeth. Once fitted, they create a secure, comfortable fit designed for hours of performing, posing, speaking, and staying confidently in character.
Seamless Smile Transition
Our flexible veneer-style system allows the design to extend deeper along the natural dental arch. This helps conceal the visible transition between your natural teeth and the FX Teeth, creating a far more seamless and believable illusion.
Finish & Customization
Every set is hand-stained for a realistic finish. From the original sculpt to the final polish, every stage is completed in our studio.
Want something even more personal? Customize this set to match your character, or let us create something entirely your own.
At Moonstruck Effects, we craft the smiles that bring dreams and nightmares to life.
Design proportions can also be subtly adjusted to better complement different mouth shapes and facial proportions.

Our thin, flexible veneers can be shaped to follow your natural dental arch, while the included fitting material creates your individual fit. This keeps unnecessary bulk to a minimum while preserving the character of the design.
Every mouth is different. Certain designs can be adapted for smaller proportions. If you have specific fitting concerns or dental work, contact us before ordering so we can discuss what may be suitable.
You don’t have to get it right on your first attempt. The fitting material can be softened and reshaped, following our instructions, so you can take your time adjusting the fit.
Your set includes fitting material and a step-by-step manual, with an online fitting guide available too. If you get stuck, reach out. We’re happy to help. Extra Fitting Beads are also available if your material needs replacing.
The fitting material molds around your natural teeth to create a personalized hold for speaking, posing and performing. Once correctly fitted, your FX Teeth can be snapped in and out between uses.
Take time to check the fit and practice before your first event or shoot. If the set feels loose or uncomfortable, revisit the fitting instructions or contact us for help before wearing it for a performance.
Yes. Speaking in character is part of the transformation. Our veneer-style design keeps unnecessary bulk to a minimum, giving your voice room to do its work.
Expect a little adjustment as you get familiar with your new smile. Speech varies with the design, your individual fit and practice. Longer fangs and more dramatic shapes may take more getting used to than subtle designs.
Yes. From subtle color changes to a more distinctive finish, we can explore ways to make this smile your own.
Because every set is finished by hand in our studio, we can explore changes to its finish and, or, its proportions. Contact us before ordering to discuss your ideas. We’ll confirm what is possible, along with any additional cost or production time.
