My teeth are still here, and I can actually remove it and have my old teeth back. This process is obviously then much more affordable than your crowns, your other veneers, your porcelain veneers,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p>City Makoti revealed that she had the procedure done at a dental practice in Benoni, paying R3,000 per tooth.<\/p>\n<p>While she initially planned to fix six teeth, she eventually extended it to eight to achieve a fuller smile, bringing the total cost to R24,000.<\/p>\n<p>She added that she opted not to work on her bottom teeth, saying she was satisfied with how they already looked.<\/p>\n<p>The procedure itself reportedly took around three hours and, unlike her previous teeth whitening experience, was not painful.<\/p>\n<p>Opening up about the recovery process, the influencer said she had to be mindful of her diet and oral care routine in the days that followed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI mostly ate white things afterwards, and after a few days, I had a little bit of coffee. But I would rinse my mouth, brush my teeth and even with this, the dentist suggested to just have a dry brush, a soft bristle brush after lunch and brushing your teeth morning, evening and flossing, which is something I\u2019ve been doing now,\u201d she shared.<\/p>\n<p>She also mentioned that her earlier teeth whitening treatment cost R6,500, adding that she is pleased with the final outcome.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" style=\"max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@thecitymakoti\/video\/7625994956058119444\" data-video-id=\"7625994956058119444\">\n<section>@thecitymakoti I did my teeth at @SMiLeiNNoVA and I couldn\u2019t be happier \ud83e\udd79 This is something I\u2019ve always wanted to do and I\u2019m so grateful that I could finally do it.
