Her viral vampire fang fiasco might be even more dangerous than it first appears. She later posted a video update where she's seen brushing her teeth with the fangs still stuck in place. She also admitted in her caption, \"Okay I need actual help!!!! I used nail glue (yes I'm dumb) but how do I get them off!!!!!!!\"
A few people directly entertained Kait's plea for help responded with \"try eating an apple and see if they fall off.\" Someone else suggested for her to embrace her new look, saying, \"just accept that you are now a vampire for life.\"
There was a response video posted by Illinois-based dentist Dr. Julie Davis, who advised Kait to call a dentist for safe removal. \"Be really careful until they fall off or a dentist removes them,\" she captioned the video, along with a look of concern. She also offered to help Kait if she is in Chicago.

Another Michigan-based dentist, Dr. Zainab Mackie, also known as \"Your TikTok Dentist,\" posted a video informing everyone not to use nail glue. \"It's poisonous and won't come off,\" she says.
As an alternative, Mackie suggests if you are using acrylic nails as your fangs to try using denture glue as it is safe and easy to take off. She also said orthodontic wax is an alternative that won't stay on but is great for pictures.
