There are many risks involved with oral piercings, including chipped or cracked teeth, blood clots, blood poisoning, heart infections, brain abscess, nerve disorders (trigeminal neuralgia), receding gums or scar tissue. Your mouth contains millions of bacteria, and infection is a common complication of oral piercing. Your tongue could swell large enough to close off your airway! So, before walking into or allowing your teen to walk into a piercing shop, think about the risks that come with a tongue piercing. Your closest pediatric dentist can teach you more about the risks of oral piercings.
