It’s becoming more common for young people to express themselves with tattoos and piercings, but even the best dentist in NYC can’t protect you from the oral health risks that tongue piercings bring about. Watch this video to learn more.
The act of getting your tongue pierced can be risky in itself, but problems could develop from your jewelry at any time. Body modification regulations are different in different states, so many piercers aren’t medically trained. Even when you go to a shop that follows strict regulations, a metal barbell could crack your tooth or cause an allergic reaction after the piercing has healed.
It’s better to prevent oral health problems than it is to have to treat them. If you need a dentist in NYC, call Park 56 Dental at (646) 783-3529 and make an appointment with our dental clinic to come in for a checkup.
