“Basement Braces” Are Going Viral And Dentists Are Concerned | TSR Investigates

Justin Carter investigates the dangerous "basement dentist" trend where unlicensed individuals install illegal fake braces for a fraction of the cost, risking permanent tooth loss.

This week on TSR Investigates, we dig into the unregulated and terrifying world of DIY "fashion braces." While an actual orthodontist can cost upwards of $5,000, viral accounts are luring young people into residential basements with the promise of a cosmetic fix for just $120 to $300.

Justin Carter tracks down an unlicensed 20-year-old operator in Memphis known as "BracesbyDior," who admits to taking a brief $800 course before buying equipment online and treating clients—including performing unregulated dental checkups.

We also sit down with reality TV star and board-certified dentist Dr. Heavenly Kimes, who reacts to the shocking lack of basic sanitization and medical oversight. From severe bone damage and root resorption to the massive financial toll of fixing these painful mistakes, find out why this quick aesthetic shortcut could cost you your entire jawline.
