From a Dental professional's perspective...       10/06/04 10:09 AM Edit Reply Quote RachelT Reged: 07/01/04 Posts: 2350 Loc: Minnesota Lip piercing's are not good. Placque (the white sticky stuff) can develop on the inside lip when it's pierced, just as easily, if not easier than on teeth. If it's not cleaned and taken care of properly, it can get infected. Also, the backing (or whatever it may be) that rests on the gum tissue on the inside lip, can cause the gum tissue to receed, or "wear away", exposing the sensitive roots of the teeth. Having a pierced lip may be "cool", but in the long run, it's really not, especially when you think of the damage it can cause in the mouth. Beaglelover, I'm not trying to freak you out or make it worse for you, I just really feel that you should be aware, and make him aware of this perspective. I hope I've helped. -------------------- ~ Rachel (IBS-C) If life hands you lemons, make lemonade!! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
