another tongue piercing Q.

[-Soph-]

Well i'm going to go for it and get it done, you only live once!


What would you recommend I put in it? My mum said I should get plastic balls on the barbell because a metal one will chip my teeth, if I play with it (which I know I will, I won't deny it, I fidget)

Or a flat plate? Or something... or just a regular silver ball?


(I'm not really looking for answers like "silver ball will look the best", i'm talking more like, health-wise)

I don't know anything about toungue pericings but just have fun trying to eat adn talk with it for the first 2 weeks.

I know... I was asking about which kind of jewelry to use.

[Mr Me]

I wud go for a plastic one if yur worried about it chipping your teeth

[Crimson]

A metal one wont chip your teeth unless you bite it as hard as you can! I personally think a metal one looks better, but if you are worried get a plastic one! :]

A man who worked with my mom had a plastic one and his tounge actually healed over the plastic bit so he had to have it surgically removed :8
Im not sure if its only plastic ones that do it or it was a freak situation :]

I think it may have been his body rejecting it possibly, my aunties did the same thing and she went and got it dun agen

yes it will, it knocks against your teeth and gradually wears the enamel down.

I'd go for a plastic one.

ok, i'll go for it!


it's so tempting to get a metal one... perhaps i'll "train" myself not to fidget with it whilst I have a plastic one in, and if all goes well i'll switch to metal, because it does look so much better..



and thanks everyone
