PIERCINGS BOCA
What is a piercing in the mouth?
It is a perforation that we perform in the mouth area. It can be on the lips, on the tongue or on the frenulum. It is a well-known practice and demanded by the public. It is easy to practice and you can get very sexy and flattering results.
Types of piercing in the mouth
There is a wide variety of piercings in the mouth, some more known than others. Below you can see a list of the different types that we can find, your name, description and photos to easily identify them.
Piercing in the frenulum:
Smiley:
It is also known as Smile or Smile. It is the piercing that is located in the frenulum of the gum of the upper lip. It is so called because it is seen fundamentally when you smile. If you have a very short frenulum, it is not advisable to do it there because it could break. The best thing is to ask a professional.
It is not a painful piercing, and requires always wearing a perfect oral hygiene so that food remains do not accumulate behind.
In this video you can see how a piercing piercing Smiley is performed:
Marly:
It is the piercing located in the lower frenulum of the tongue and is a bit more painful than the previous one.
This video shows us very well how to perform the drilling. Always using gloves, sterile material and perfectly deinfecting the area before drilling.
Tongue piercing:
Also known as Tongue Piercing: it is the piercing located on the tongue. It can be drilled almost anywhere, from the tip to the back. The orientation of the perforation can be horizontal or vertical.
This area is very popular and is usually chosen for several reasons:
- Its aesthetic component is one of the main reasons to choose them.
- Sex toy It is one more element to use and have fun in sex games.
Here we show you the different piercing in the language that we can do:
Traditional :
Piercing is performed in the central part of the tongue. It is a safe place because the slope is far from the teeth and thus does not damage them.
In this video you can see how simple and fast it is to pierce the traditional piercing in the tongue.
Tip:
They are those that are located on the tip of the tongue. These slopes have the disadvantage of being able to damage the teeth by the continuous rubbing, and even when eating we can bite the slope.
Venom:
they are two piercing in the tongue placed side by side, seeming to be only one horizontal.
Horizontal or Snake Eye:
This is a piercing that sits horizontally on the tip of the tongue and completely crosses it.
Surface:
It is a horizontal perforation but it does not cross it completely. This is the most dangerous and many professionals prefer not to do it. They can cause irreversible damage, bleeding and damage a nerve. If you decide on this type of piercing, make sure that the professional is specialized in this variant and has done it regularly.
In this video we can see how a piercing surface is done in the language. As you can see, the language is not completely crossed.
