    Or if your teens still live under your roof, refuse to let them live rent free for falling for such an idiotic, unnatractive trend.

    That this “research” even was even necessary shows what a sad state our country is in!

    No tongue piercings ? Well, I guess they can stick to something safe, like piercing their peckers.

    Even when you try, you can’t watch them all the time. My stepdaughter got some friend of hers to do her tongue piercing.

    That this research even was even necessary shows what a sad state our country is in! Given the arrogance of teenagers, maybe this research was indeed necessary. (And it was done in Israel, of all places.)

    You are right on about the sexual performance of the piercing. Stupid is as stupid pierces.

    I don’t even want to try and imagine what kind of piercing could cause tooth fractures... Ouch.

    I imagine that a simple tongue piercing could do it. All it would take is a misplaced bite on the metal stud.

    teens with oral piercings are at high risk for both tooth fractures and gum disease. Yes but when I'm feeling "anxious" in a certain way where only a "Monica" will do, how better to know which woman sporting a tattoo to approach?

    Resulting tooth fractures as well as periodontal problems, he says, can lead to anterior (front) tooth loss later in life. How diligent are people with pierced tongue and lips about daily tooth brushing & flossing?

    Besides being totally unattractive to LOOK at, you have to listen to the stupid stud clicking against their teeth. How disgusting.
