paper clay teeth

The best way I make my teeth is out of cold porcelain
It dries like stone. It is the color of teeth. You can make many teeth out of one batch.
You can make them sharp as you like. Easily sanded. Easily painted. They are better than clay.
In my opinion. And from experience. It's the best way and result.
Go onto YouTube. And type in cold porcelain. Glue. Corn starch/flour and lemon juice. Cheaper than anything you can buy.
You can also make zombie eyes out of it.
Go for it.

Thanks. I will definitely look in to that. I'm in college right now, so cheaper is hands down better!

Thank you! I'm assuming that's a polymer clay? I've recently experimented with Fimo clay. . . So far I'm pretty pleased with that. . . Far more so than I was with with the paper clay. Still, I will play with all of your methods to see which best suites my purposes.

I've used paper mache, porcelain clay (as in stoneware not the recipe burnley0 gave) and Sculpey/Fimo to make teeth. For me it depends on what materials I have on hand and what I want the final product to look like. With paper mache I can get giant odd-shaped monster teeth for really cheap, but it's one of the most complicated and time consuming processes. Porcelain clay is nice if you want something that looks really realistic and if you want something small and thin (fragile), but it's costly and requires a kiln to fire the pieces. Sculpey/Fimo is great if you want that clay look and only need a few small-ish teeth but you don't want to have to invest in a kiln, buy 50lbs of clay and spend the time drying and firing pieces.

Cold porcelain is air dry by the way.
I forgot to mention that.
Needs no kiln or oven to dry.
As witchy mama above says. Cold porcelain will give you the color and texture of real teeth.
You can also make fingernails too

Oh...forgot to add with the sculpey teeth I made I brushed on some high gloss glaze they make. Really makes the teeth shine and more realistic.

Thanks for the heads up on the cold porcelain and the sculpey teeth! Also, If I didn't mention it earlier, love the Pretator teeth! Amazing detail, for sure

Gloss is a must with teeth if you want them to have that 'shiny white teeth' look.

I have used Apoxie Sculpt to make teeth as well, Sculpey is cool because it has a bit of a translucent quality like real teeth.

Nice! I'll have to check that

Very cool Terra! That I will definitely try! Love those results #

this is absolutely amazing i would love to have one!
