3/4 of an inch from the tip of the tongue, too far back will require a very long barbell and the swelling can be dangerous not to mention the chances of triggering the gag reflex.

A tongue piercing should be placed about 0.5-0.6 inches (1.3-1.5 cm) back from the tip of the tongue to avoid damaging teeth or causing speech issues. It should be done by a professional piercer who can accurately determine the ideal placement based on individual anatomy.
