1770. ‘Urfajah bin As’ad said: “My nose was severed on the Day of Al-Kulāb during Jāhiliyyah. So I got a nose of silver which caused an infection for me, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered me to get a nose made of gold.” (Hasan)
(Another chain) with similar meaning.
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan [Gharīb], we only know of it as a narration of ‘Abdur-Rahmān bin Ṭarafah. Salm bin Zarīr reported similar to the narration of Abū Al-Ashhab from ‘Abdur-Rahmān bin Ṭaraqah – “from
‘Abdur-Raḥmān bin Ṭaraqah.” It has been related about more than one of the people of knowledge that they would brace their teeth with gold, and in this Hadīth there was a proof for them.
[‘Abdur-Raḥmān] bin Mahdī said: “Salm bin Zarīn” but that is an error, “Zarīr” is more correct, [and Abū Sa’d Aṣ-Ṣan’ānī’s (a narrator in this chain) name is Muḥammad bin Muyassir].

Commentary
The Hadīth confirms that in case of necessity or inevitability it is allowed to use gold for ones teeth or nose.
