..... to get my tongue pierced?

[stevie69]

Just that, really . I realise that this is my decision but just wanted to gauge the feeling of all you lovely people.

Also, for those that have had it done— any good news? Bad news?

Thanks ladies and gents.

Dental Nurse (and piercing fan) here - don't do it! Aside from the chipped teeth, some people get into a habit of running it along the inside of the lower front teeth, which can wear away the gum and make your teeth loose. And once that happens it's goodnight teeth, hello denture. Or implants if you're loaded.
OP if you want something to draw attention from other areas, how about septum? I had mine done and it was painless (apart from when I would change my shirt and smack myself up the nose)

Thank you. I think that I am going to heed your warnings. Dentures seem a bit like Tena Lady to me. Sure, nobody would tell if I were wearing them (according to the bloody ads on Sunday daytime TV which make me feel like I should buy some slippers and give up) but ...... my fit, attractive thirty-something is going to find out once I get him home/into a hotel room* (delete as appropriate)

I don't require Tena Lady yet and I don't want dentures. I'm planning on having a bit of fun. I'm single. Why not?

Thanks for the sound advice. I appreciate it

I've had mine for 20 years now. I've actually got two. I've never had a problem with them. And my teeth are fine. It can be a pain eating toffees though.
