Hello Polderis, Correct Positioning is critical with tongue piercings. Horizontal Piercings are very likely to cause nerve damage and are never recommended. "The correct place is in the midline, on the front third of the tongue far enough back so that the jewelry does not hit the teeth when speaking but not so far back that the piercing is stretched when swallowing or yawning. The further back the piercing the worse the swelling and pain during the first week." http://www.thebananabar.com/webpages/bodypiercing.htm Placement "It has be done both at the tip and deeper into the tongue, and multiple simultaneous placements have been shown to be possible. The placement that puts that impedes speech and eating less for the individual getting pierced should be used. The part of the tongue that bends with speech etc is NOT a suitable placement for this piercing." "The area decided upon to be pierced should then be checked for blood vessels with a flashlight. It is important to remember that not everyone's anatomy is suited for this piercing." "Most piercers do not consider this a viable piercing because of the almost unavoidable side-effects. http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Horizontal_Tongue_Piercing Search terms: horizontal piercing tongue I hope this helps!
