What are some disadvantages of the monroe piercing?

The biggest concern with oral piercings is gum/enamel erosion. It happens because the jewelry constantly makes contact with your gums and wears it away. Both gum and enamel erosion are permanent. Depending onyour anatomy, you can get the piercing placed to have minimal contact with your gums/teeth. Thats why its super important to go to a pro for this. Sometimes the jewelry will nestle, and thats awesome in terms of preventing erosion. Erosion is very gradual so a good idea is to take a picture of your gums/teeth before you get the piercing, then just compare your teeth to that every now and then to catch the erosion before it gets bad :)


Why is it bad to have lip piercing?

I wouldn't say that lip piercings are bad. Just like any other piercing, a lip piercing comes with risks. The biggest ones are gum and enamel erosion. The jewelry can rub against your teeth and gums and basically wear it away. Its irreversible without surgery. Depending on your anatomy, it could be inevitable. Your piercer hs to look at the area and find the best placement so that theres minimal contact between gums/teeth and the jewelry. its pretty gradual so if you keep an eye on it, you can remove the piercing before it gets really bad.

Can a professional pierce a Monroe with a piercing gun?

In most countries using a piercing gun for any piercing other than ear lobes is a violation of federal health regulations or guidelines. Even the piercing gun manufacturers warn and advise against using the piercing gun for any piercing other than ear lobes. Piercing guns and the studs used in them are not designed nor intended to be used in nostrils or monroes. The tearing and damage done to the nostril can have life long effects, and the possible infection due to improper cleaning of the piercing can be serious. Professional body piercers have complained long and hard about piercing guns in general, due to the harsh manner in which they penetrate the tissue and cause problems during the healing process. So after all this being said, there are individuals out there who could care less about you or your health, who would be more than willing to screw up your face by using a piercing gun to pierce your nose. The question is are you stupid enough to let them do it to you? I don't think you are because you were smart enough to ask the question. Go see a professional body piercer..

What is the main health concern regarding lip piercing?

Assuming you have it done at a good professional piercing studio, none really. But I know the "dental community" (these are my dentist's words) hates them, because people can break their teeth on them, or they can hurt the gums. However, that would generally only happen if you weren't wearing the proper type of or size or jewelry, if it were placed improperly, etc. On many people, the back of a labret (middle, and kind of low) piercing will rub against their front bottom teeth's gums, making them recede. I have a middle and side lip piercing that I wear with either studs or rings, and the jewelry NEVER touches my teeth when it's at rest, when I'm talking, or when I'm eating, so I'm fine. I also have a scrumper (aka smiley, aka upper frenulum) piercing, and that doesn't hurt my teeth either, despite my dentist's claims.
