The rapper recently had all his teeth removed and replaced with titanium dentures in his latest shock move.
The rapper proudly flashed his pointy new smile in an Instagram post – in which he likened himself to iconic James Bond villain, Jaws, who appeared in The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker.
In an exclusive photo obtained by DailyMail.com, West’s lavish new dentures – which a source revealed are ‘more expensive than diamonds’ and were designed by the star himself – were shown.
The implant is a new surgical model and is unique to the musician – with the total cost rumored to be an eye-watering $850,000.
The star’s new dentures were fitted by Dr Thomas Connelly in Beverly Hills alongside Naoki Hayashi, Master Dental Technician.
After previously stating on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2010 that he had his entire bottom row of teeth removed, an insider tells DM: ‘Ye has had the bulk of his teeth shaved down to little tombstones, which is standard procedure for veneers.’
Connelly told DailyMail.com: ‘Ye was a pleasure to work with every step of the process. His vision for designing unique art transcends the dental progression. The marriage of his vision with dental science has created a new look that is epic!’

Back in 2010 the rapper showed off the sparkling diamond and gold implants to chat show host Ellen DeGeneres – which he claimed had replaced his entire bottom row of teeth.
‘I just thought that diamonds were cooler,’ he told her, saying he asked the dentist to remove his bottom row of teeth and replace them.
A fascinated Ellen asked: ‘It’s not a grill?’
Kanye replied: ‘It’s really my real teeth. I replaced my bottom row of teeth.

‘I guess there’s just certain things that rock stars are supposed to do.’
His earlier claims to have replaced his teeth were met with skepticism, with Kanye’s fans doubting that even he would do such a thing.

It was revealed last month that the Malibu oceanfront property West bought for $57 million in September 2021 was being put up for sale for $4 million less.
