Question:-
Are men permitted to wear gold teeth?
Answer:-
Men are not permitted to wear gold teeth as donning oneself with gold is prohibited for men. Yes, if there is a need, and there is no other way of fulfilling the necessity except by donning gold, then it will be permitted (on the basis of necessity.)
وَقَدْ وَرَدَتِ الرُّخْصَةُ لِلرِّجَالِ فَمَنْ قُطِعَ أَنْفَهُ بِأَنْ يَتَّخِذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَذَلِكَ فِي حَدِيثِ عَرْفَجَةَ بْنِ أَسْعَدَ أَنَّهُ «أُصِيبَ أَنْفُهُ يَوْمَ الْكُلَابِ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَاتَّخَذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ فَأَنْتَنَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ أَنْفًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ» [السنن الصغير للبيهقي ص:135]
