Tongue frenulum piercing
Tongue frenulum piercing, also known as frenulum piercing or tongue web piercing, is a unique and discreet form of body decoration in which the thin tissue connecting the lower part of the tongue to the oral cavity is pierced. An ornament is then inserted into the resulting hole, most often in the form of a small dumbbell or ring. This piercing can aesthetically highlight and underline the unique features of your smile, giving it an attractive and distinctive look. In our studio, we perform tongue frenulum piercings regularly and with maximum expertise, which allows us to achieve great results and the satisfaction of our customers. Our experienced professionals ensure that the highest hygiene standards are followed to ensure that every piercing is safe and hassle-free.

Upon arrival at the studio, you will fill out the "Consent to the procedure", which will, among other things, contain contraindications before piercing the frenulum of the tongue and its subsequent care. The absence of contraindications and compliance with the care procedure recommended by us is one of the important conditions for successful healing of the piercing.
Next follows a conversation with the piercer. You will discuss the appropriate placement and jewelry for the tongue frenulum piercing, which we will place immediately and possibly which you will wear afterwards.
Piercer prepares a workplace. The chosen piece of jewelry for piercing the frenulum of the tongue together with the needle will be sterilized for approx. 10 min. During that time, you will have the opportunity to ask anything and specify the necessary information.
After sterilization, the piercer will mark the final piercing site for the frenulum of the tongue, disinfect the skin and in a few seconds you will have a new piercing of the frenulum of the tongue.

Tongue frenulum piercing healing time
The process of complete healing of a tongue frenulum piercing usually takes from 3 to 6 weeks, sometimes longer. Complete healing means that the piercing canal is completely covered with new skin.
Tongue frenulum piercing healing process
The piercing almost always overflows, so we first give a longer piece of jewelry, which we exchange for a shorter one in about 1-2 months. Otherwise, there is a risk of frequent tripping over the jewelry and subsequent traumatization.
Sometimes it needs to be replaced several times during healing, so if you feel that the jewelry is becoming too long and is in the way, you can ask for it to be shortened.
When exchanging jewelry for a shorter one, the price of the jewelry is paid according to the current price list, the service is free if it is an initial healing process.
Piercing care
Oral hygiene: If you have a piercing in your mouth, use alcohol-free mouthwash and always rinse your mouth for about 15 seconds after eating. If this is not part of your daily dental hygiene, plain clean water (filtered, bottled or boiled) is sufficient. Take care of oral hygiene as it is important to speed up healing.
Restrictions after tongue frenulum piercing
Drinking and diet: For the first 3-4 hours after the procedure, drink only water, cold tea or an iced still drink without sugar or alcohol. Then rinse your mouth. During the first 3-5 days, the tongue will swell, it may hurt and you will not be able to eat anything except soft food that should not be hot, bitter, sour, salty or colored.
Oral sex and kissing: During healing, especially the first 14 days, avoid oral sex and kissing. Then follow your feelings, it is best not to rush them, so as not to cause trauma.
Alcohol and smoking: We do not recommend drinking alcohol and smoking while the oral piercing is healing, as it can cause bleeding. If you are a smoker, you do not have to give up smoking, but try to limit it and rinse your mouth with clean water after smoking.
