Kim Praises The Tooth Fairy
Selfie #1 shows Kim with her son, Saint, 9, grinning as he shows off a bloody front tooth. By the looks of it, one tooth had already fallen (been knocked?) out and another was on the way, seemingly at a sporting event of sorts. More photos featured images of her other children, North, 12, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, and their smiles over the years.
In a number of other photos, the kids sport grills or tooth gems; like Saint’s gold Louis Vuitton grill on his front tooth or Chicago’s Hello Kitty teeth gems. North has been known to accessorize her teeth over the years, too, once showing off a set of diamond grills on TikTok last year. Kim has been a fan of teeth jewelry herself for many years, even sporting a set of diamond grills on her lower teeth for a KKW Beauty campaign on different occasions.

Social Media Reactions
Accessorizing the teeth is certainly not something many people concern themselves with, but when you have as much money as the Kardashians, I guess the thought process is "Why not?" Well, according to fans, because it's dangerous. In the comment section, many users called out Kim for letting her kids accessorize their teeth as it's a choking hazard. "Not the teeth gems on a toddler's teeth!" one person commented.
"What happens when the gems come off in the toddlers mouth?" another person asked. "They look pretty small but I'm betting most of them are swallowed. Also like can't they choke on the bigger gems? I'm always telling my toddler to keep things out of his mouth. This doesn't seem right to me."
"What's the point?" asked another. "So kids can choke on them? Seems wildly unnecessary."
