Create ‘Rotten Teeth’ that Fit Your Gums with Low Temperature Thermoplastic
In this video by Ellimacs SFX the making of ‘rotten teeth’ is demonstrated. They’re constructed using low-temp thermoplastic, which converts from a pellet-based solid into a malleable solid in hot water. It’s surprisingly versatile stuff and as demonstrated in the video it colors easily too! While not recommended at all for people with braces this is a pretty cheap and easy alternative for constructing custom gum-fitting teeth for your upcoming Halloween costume!

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
