“Chipped my front tooth on a Sunday. The dentist couldn’t see me until the 12th. I tried this on the kitchen counter and it looked normal in my Monday meeting.”

“I’ve had a small gap between my two front teeth since I was a kid. I tried this on a whim and it filled the gap in about five minutes. I’m 47 and I wish I’d known about it years ago.”

How it works
Four steps that usually take about five minutes.
You’ll need a small amount of hot water (most people use a kettle or pour from a hot tap into a mug). Drop a piece of the thermoplastic in for about a minute. Once it goes clear, take it out and shape it onto the tooth with your fingers. If the shape isn’t right the first time, drop the same piece back in the water and try again. The material is reusable.

What it looks like up close
The same smile, before and after.
These two photos are of the same smile, taken minutes apart. The thermoplastic goes clear when you heat it in hot water. You press it onto the chip or push it into the gap with your fingers, smooth the surface, and let it cool. It hardens in about thirty seconds, and the tint is meant to blend with most natural tooth shades.

Why people use it
If a chipped or gapped tooth is keeping you from smiling in photos.
Most cosmetic dental work for a single tooth costs a few hundred dollars and takes weeks of waiting for an appointment. The Imako thermoplastic is a temporary alternative you can use the same day, and it comes off cleanly if you decide to have the dental work done later.
Before Imako
The daily workaround
01You smile with your mouth closed in most photos.
02The dentist quote was a few hundred dollars and the next opening is a few weeks out.
03You chew on the other side of your mouth so you don’t make the chip worse.
04The small gap between your front teeth has bothered you for years.
05You have something coming up this weekend and you don’t want to think about your teeth.
After Imako
The tooth back to normal
01The chip is filled in, and most people don’t notice unless you point it out.
02It cost $10 and took about 10 minutes.
03The tint is meant to blend with natural enamel, so it doesn’t stand out in photos.
04If you don’t like the shape, you can reheat the same piece and redo it.
05If you decide to have the chip bonded by a dentist later, the material comes off without damaging the tooth.
Before you click buy
Common questions, answered.
Will it look fake or shiny?
+
It’s tinted to look like natural enamel rather than bright white. After you smooth the surface with your finger, it sits flat against the tooth. Most customers tell us nobody noticed until they pointed it out.
Is it permanent?
+
No. The material is a low-melt thermoplastic, so it softens again in hot water and comes off cleanly without damaging the natural tooth. It’s designed as a temporary fix while you wait for a dental appointment, or as an everyday cover.
How long does one application last?
+
It depends on care. Most people get a few days to a few weeks out of one application. Avoid biting hard or sticky things on the tooth, rinse and brush gently, and you can refresh or reshape the material whenever you want.
Can I eat with it on?
+
No, take it off before eating. You don’t need to reheat to remove it, it pops out and back in easily. You can drink with it in.
How many fixes does one pack do?
+
Each pack has enough material for several attempts on one tooth, plus reheats and refreshes. Most customers get many weeks of use out of a single pack.
What if it falls off?
+
Drop the same piece back in hot water and remold it. The thermoplastic can be melted and reshaped many times, so nothing is wasted.
Is it safe?
+
Yes. It’s made in the USA from a BPA-free tinted thermoplastic commonly used in dental fitting products. It’s a cosmetic fix, not a medical device. If you have active dental issues like pain, swelling, or infection, see your dentist first.
How is this different from the Imako Cosmetic Teeth Kit?
+
The Cosmetic Teeth Kit is a full upper-arch overlay that covers all your top teeth at once. People use it for stains, multiple gaps, or a wholesale change to the look of their smile. This product is just a small amount of material for fixing one chip or filling one gap.
Can I use it on a back tooth?
+
Yes. It works on any tooth, front or back. Take it off before eating since it’s a temporary cosmetic fix, not a chewing surface.
What if it doesn’t work for me?
+
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. Email us within 30 days of your order date and we’ll send a return label and issue a refund.

Overall rating: 3.9 / 5 from 28 reviews.
Due to two different treatments for cancer( radio active iodine for Thyroid Cancer and Chemo for Multiple Myeloma, I have had tooth loss. I love your product as it works well and no one can tell that it’s not a real tooth. Because I may need future treatment I was advised not to spend money on an implant as it may be affected again. Your product is a wonderful solution. Thank You!
I think you're on to something, so far this working well, and even with light eating, it holds, takes time getting used to it, molding tooth to fit right.i highly recommend.
I absolutely love this product . Once I molded it to fit, it felt sturdy and the material felt durable. Thank you for your help in adding my add-on order .i received both orders promptly.
I broke a lower front tooth a few days before a job interview. My sister ordered for me and it worked perfect to fill in where the tooth had broken off. This temporary lasted almost two weeks. I thought was good considering it was a front tooth and I was eating like normal. The tint matches up with my own teeth very good. You have to really look to even tell something is different. I ordered more to make a few other repairs
Saw this on Amazon and figured I’d give it a try. Been struggling with a large gap between my front teeth and can’t afford to get braces. This actually ended up working way better than I expected and my friends were shocked that it was such a cheap solution. Will definitely use this for when I go out for special occasions and want to smile worry free
Went to the dentist for my missing tooth and they said it would cost almost $1000 for a fake tooth! Can’t afford that right now, thankfully I came across this product which is a great solution for now. Would definitely recommend
I don’t typically leave reviews, but for anyone who may be skeptical like I was, BUY THIS PRODUCT! After struggling with a gap in my smile for years due to a ski accident, I am so relieved to have found a product that finally does what it says it will. Easy to use, comfortable in my mouth, and looks natural. 10/10 product
Chipped my tooth playing basketball. Came across this product on Amazon and for under $10 gave it a chance. Couldn’t be more pleased with how easy and realistic my tooth looks. Using this until I can permanently fix my tooth.
