Professional tooth gem tools
Precision placement, from pick-up to finish.
The go-to tweezers for tooth gem technicians. ESD-17 curved fine tip picks up tiny crystals and shaped charms cleanly — no slipping, no chasing gems around the tray, no misplacement on the adhesive.
Designed for the finer details.
Control, visibility, and precise handling.
A clearer sightline
Curved tip improves sightline to the tooth surface, especially near the gumline, lower teeth, and tight angles where straight tips obstruct your view.
Anti-static handling
Anti-static ESD design prevents micro-crystals from static-clinging to the tip — cleaner pick-up, cleaner release onto the adhesive every time.
Stainless steel design
Non-magnetic stainless steel — does not interfere with crystal adhesives, bond materials, or UV cure protocols.

Three steps to precise placement.
-
Pick up
Pick up the crystal or charm by the edge (not the face) for better control and a cleaner release onto the adhesive.
-
Align
Hover and align the gem over the placement spot before making contact with the adhesive — the curved tip improves sightline for accurate positioning.
-
Place and release
Set gently into adhesive, release slowly, then cure per your adhesive protocol. Do not drag or press — let the adhesive grip the gem.
Use tweezers strictly for pick-up and placement — not for scraping adhesive or prying gems off the tooth surface. Keep the tip clean between clients for consistent grip and hygiene.

Good to know
The finer points.
Common questions about your tooth gem tweezers.
Is this the same as "rhinestone tweezers"?
Yes. ESD-17 tweezers are the professional version of rhinestone
tweezers — anti-static, fine-tip, and built for precision placement
of small crystals and shaped charms on teeth. Standard rhinestone
tweezers lack anti-static (ESD) protection, which can cause
micro-gems to cling to the tip rather than releasing cleanly onto
the adhesive. If you're searching for rhinestone tweezers for
tooth gems, the ESD-17 is the professional-grade choice.
Do I still need a wax pick-up tool?
It depends on your technique. Many tooth gem technicians use
tweezers for placement and a wax pencil for initial pick-up from
the tray. The ESD-17 curved tip handles both steps, but pairing
with a wax pick-up tool gives you more flexibility when working
with very small micro-gems or loose crystals in a shallow tray.
Will the curved tip help more than straight-tip tweezers?
Yes — especially for lower teeth, gumline placements, and tight
angles. The curve improves your sightline so you can see exactly
where the gem contacts the adhesive without the tip obstructing
your view. Straight-tip tweezers work on flat front-facing
surfaces but become awkward and less accurate for angled tooth
gem placements.
How do I clean tooth gem tweezers between clients?
Wipe the tip with an isopropyl alcohol pad between clients for
quick disinfection. For full sterilization, autoclave or use a
cold sterile solution appropriate for stainless steel dental
instruments. Do not soak the joint or spring area in liquid for
extended periods as this can affect the pinch tension over time.
Can I use tooth gem tweezers to remove tooth gems?
No. Tweezers are for placement only — never for removal.
Attempting to pry or pull gems with tweezers can chip the enamel
or fracture the crystal. Use a dedicated tooth gem removal tool —
a flat-blade instrument designed to gently rock the gem off the
adhesive bond without applying direct force to the tooth surface.
