How to Make a Silicone Teeth Mold

Next video to watch: How to Take a Teeth Impression.

In this video we explain how to create a silicone teeth mold from a plaster teeth cast. This is important if you are creating multiple character teeth for an actor. Pay special attention to your mold making. Silicone will seep out of any crack or seam in your mold. If your clay walls are not sturdy, silicone will burst through any weak areas and leak everywhere. This is an expensive mistake that even professional make on occasion so don’t get lazy on your mold making.

Silicone supplies:

I recommend a platinum base silicone to make your mold. What I like to use is Smooth On, Dragon Skin 30 platinum silicone. It is fairly inexpensive but durable silicone and a really nice for molding.
