Kanye West has kicked off the new year with a big change, as the rapper has reportedly replaced his teeth with titanium dentures.
According to an exclusive photo obtained by DailyMail, the
rapper can be seen sporting a pair of metal dentures on the top and bottom rows
of his gums. The surgical procedure reportedly cost West a whopping $850,000,
with a source claiming that the rapper’s new grill was “more expensive than
diamonds.”
The titanium dentures, which were designed by West, were
reportedly implanted by Beverly Hills surgeon Dr. Thomas Connelly, who gushed
of his experience having the hitmaker as a patient. ‘Ye was a pleasure to work
with every step of the process,” Connelly told DailyMail.
“His vision for designing unique art transcends the dental
progression. The marriage of his vision with dental science has created a new
look that is epic!’” In addition to Dr. Connelly, Master Dental Technician
Naoki Hayashi also assisted in the procedure.
On Wednesday (Jan. 17), the 46-year-old posted a photo of
himself wearing his new dentures on his Instagram Story. West later alluded to
his new mouthpiece being inspired by the James Bond villain jaws in a
subsequent post, in which he shared a screenshot of results from a Google
search of the character.

This isn’t the first time that West has made an alteration to his teeth. The Chicago native previously had diamond and gold implanted in his mouth in 2010. In 2018, West made headlines when he revealed that he had underwent a liposuction procedure in 2016, which he says led to his development of an opioid addiction during his recovery.
“I was drugged the f**k out,” he said at the time. “I was
drugged out. I was on opioids. Two days after I got off opioids, I’m in the
hospital. Two days before going to the hospital, I was on opioids. I was
addicted to opioids. I had plastic surgery because I was trying to look good
for y’all.”
On the musical front, Kanye West is currently gearing up for
the release of Vultures, his collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign. The album,
which has suffered numerous delays, is currently slated for release on Feb. 9.
