Tongue Piercing

The tongue piercing is an absolute classic among body piercings and a symbol of individuality and rebellion. It is usually placed vertically in the middle of the tongue and is not only a visual highlight, but also feels unique to the wearer. At Pierz, you will find a high-quality selection of jewelry that perfectly combines safety and style.

Tongue Piercing: Placement and Special Features

A tongue piercing requires precision. It is typically pierced on the midline of the tongue to avoid major blood vessels. In our online shop at Pierz, we focus on jewelry designs that protect dental health while offering maximum expressive power.

Types of Jewelry for the Tongue: Barbells and More

Almost exclusively a straight bar, the so-called barbell, is used for tongue piercings. But within this category, there are many variations:

• Classic Barbells: Simple bars with two balls – timeless and comfortable.
• Decorative Attachments: Crystals, flat discs, or colorful designs for an individual look.
• Flexible Materials: Particularly gentle on the teeth during active movement.

Pain and Piercing: What to Expect

Although the tongue is a muscle, piercing is often perceived as less painful than one might expect. On a scale of 1 to 10, a tongue piercing usually ranks at 3 to 4. The moment of piercing is very short, but you should prepare for the days afterward.

Healing and Proper Aftercare in the Oral Cavity

The tongue heals extremely quickly compared to other parts of the body – usually within 2 to 4 weeks. However, since the oral cavity harbors many bacteria, care is crucial:

• Use an alcohol-free mouthwash after every meal.
• Avoid spicy, very hot, or dairy foods in the first few days.
• Cool the tongue with ice cubes (made from water or chamomile tea) to relieve swelling.

Important: Shorten the jewelry in good time

For the initial piercing, an extra long bar is used to accommodate swelling. After about 2 weeks, it is important to switch to a shorter barbell to avoid tooth damage and irritation.
