NORTH West has followed in her dad’s footsteps by showing off her new tooth bling.
Kim Kardashian‘s daughter revealed her sparkling accessory in a new TikTok shared on their joint account on Wednesday.

Also on Wednesday, Kanye and his dental doctors announced that he’d gotten a full set of titanium dentures.
In her TikTok post, North, 10, featured in a selection of recent images.
One standout pic showed the young Hulu star showing off her teeth to the camera, with a caption reading, “Random.”
The pre-teen looked her normal self in most respects, wearing a tie-dye tee with a print from The Simpsons, and her hair in long braids.
However, in place of her normal pearly whites, two of her top teeth and six on the bottom were encrusted with tiny, shimmering diamonds.
On Wednesday, Kanye gave a first look at the full grill he had installed, showing off a solid titanium piece shining in front of a black background, and a close-up of it in his mouth.
The custom dentures, which are said to be “more expensive than diamonds,” were designed by Kanye and cost him an eye-watering $850,000, according to The Daily Mail.
A source told the publication that the surgical implant is unique to Ye and was fitted by Dr. Thomas Connelly in Beverly Hills, California, alongside Naoki Hayashi, Master Dental Technician.
“[Kanye] was a pleasure to work with every step of the process. His vision for designing unique art transcends the dental progression,” Connelly told the outlet.
The doctor concluded, “The marriage of his vision with dental science has created a new look that is epic!”
JUST LIKE DAD
This isn’t the first time North has honored her dad‘s wild style choices in recent weeks.
At her mom Kim’s Christmas party, North sparkled in a denim jacket encrusted in jewels.
Fans quickly noticed that the luxury Balmain garment was first worn by Kanye at the 2016 Met Gala.
On Reddit, one fan gushed, “The love North has for her father is so strong.”
“It’s actually sweet that she kept all of Kanye’s clothes,” said a second social media user.
“Reduce, reuse, recycle,” joked a third.
“She upcycles a lot of her father’s clothes. Interesting,” a final commenter noted.
‘TOO MATURE’
Alongside North, Kim, 43, and Kanye share Saint, 8; Chicago, 6; and Psalm, 4.
Even before getting a grill, some fans have expressed concern that North’s environment has made her grow up too soon.
Last April, before North turned 10, she posed on a red carpet in Los Angeles alongside her mom and hairstylist Chris Appleton.
North sported a tailored black blazer teamed with black cargo pants unzipped at the hem and super-high platform Dolce & Gabbana boots.
She accessorized with a crystal choker with a dangling cross and wore her hair in an ultra-high ponytail with long extensions.
On a forum dedicated to the Kardashians, one person asked, “Why is North dressed like an adult? She’s 10?”
“Even North’s makeup doesn’t count as minimal,” slammed a second.
“I predict North will resent Kim when she’s an adult and realizes Kim forced her to act like her bff… Kim treats North like her sidekick instead of her young child,” another commenter speculated.
