If its the same gauge size I suppose you could for an industrial or something like that not just a regular earring though that would probably look weird.
They're too long for earlobes and they'll stretch your ears a bit because of the uneven weight.

When you get your tongue pirced do they have use the needle or can they just put the ring in?
Well the only way to put anything into a tongue is to use a needle to pierce the tongue first then put a barbell into the newly pierced hole. (Please quit calling it a tongue ring, it's a barbell and not a ring).
What will happen if you have a tongue piercing and play basketball?
Nothing. You don't have to worry about biting the tongue ring if the barbell isn't too long for your mouth & if you don't use it to click your teeth.
Do you have to use a long barbell right after you get your tongue pierced?
The barbell has to be longer to allow the tongue to swell, failure to allow for room can result in the barbell being pulled into the piercing and requiring surgical intervention to remove it from the tongue.
Can you use a barbell for your tongue for your ear?
Yes, you can. Most barbells made for the tongue are 14 gauge, so your ear piercing would need to be 14 gauge (much thicker than a regular earring). A labret is another option, as they are usually shorter.

Can you put in tongue rings for your industrial piercing?
No, tongue rings are specifically designed for tongue piercings and are not suitable for an industrial piercing. An industrial piercing typically requires a long straight barbell that goes through two separate ear piercings. It is best to use jewelry that is specifically designed for an industrial piercing to ensure proper healing and comfort.
Plastic or metal tongue ring after you pierce your tongue?
The original barbell must be metal. After that...it's your preference. I don't like plastic barbells because they aren't as sturdy. However, I do like to use plastic balls instead of metal. The metal click against my teeth and can be more damaging.

Is bioplast good for a tongue ring after the tongue its completely healed?
Sure Bioplast was designed for the body piercing industry and is fine once the piercing is healed. Some piercers will use it right from the start, but I am a bit old school so I like to get the piercing healed with a metal barbell ( the flexing can prevent the piercing from draining correctly and clients tends to chew on a flexible barbell which isn't a smart move ). Just keep in mind anything flexible will eventually fail from wear and tear, so keep your shorter metal barbell handy when you travel, just in case.
What is the most commonly use gauge for a tongue ring?
14.
Can you use a tongue ring as a nipple ring as well?
No. A tongue stud is too long to be a good nipple ring. You'd wind up catching it on something and then you'd really be sorry.
