Lip piercingFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Lip piercings are a type of body piercings which penetrate the lips or, more commonly, the area surrounding the lips. The lips and surrounding area can be pierced in a variety of ways.

It may hurt depending on the amount of pain you can take and or the size of your lips.When the lip is pierced, a larger ring or labret stud will be put in to accommodate swelling. This can be changed to smaller ring or stud when the swelling goes down. An example of a lip ring. An example of 3 Lip Piercings. An example of 5 Lip Piercings. Previously the same individual with 3 lip piercings, now with another one in the upper lip, and two in the Eyebrow. [edit] Health issues Most lip piercings have the potential to damage both teeth and gums if proper jewelry is not worn, or if the placement of the individual piercing is poor. Lip rings do not touch the gums. A home-made saline solution is a common way to heal a lip piercing and avoid infection. Combine 1/8 tsp. sea salt to 1 cup of warm water. This solution can be used to rinse out the mouth after eating and to soak the outside of the piercing using a cotton ball. Anything with alcohol, peroxide, iodine, or any strong soaps should be avoided because they may irritate the fresh piercing, and cause additional swelling and trauma. During the healing process, kissing should be avoided to prevent infection. [edit] Types of lip piercings Lip piercings can be placed anywhere around the mouth, but usually the surface of the lip (the red part) is not pierced. Piercings in specific positions have specific names: A Lip Ring is a ring that goes through the bottom of the lip. It can be centered or Off-Center. This jewelry will have no contact with your gums. A Labret is a lip piercing pierced with a labret stud. A flat disc sits between the back of the lip and the gums and a bead sits on the outside of the lip. Labrets can pierced in the centre, or off-centre. A Vertical labret goes through the center of the bottom lip, parallel to the tissue (the bar has a slight curve, and is visible both below the bottom lip and in between the top and bottom lips). A Horizontal Lip Piercing is a horizontal bar, usually through the red part of the lip and usually on the lower lip. This is a very rare piercing. A Lowbret is just a lower Labret. An example of AngelbitesThe Vertical Lowbret piercing starts inside the mouth between the lower lip and the teeth (not behind the teeth as with a mandible piercing) and travels straight down, exiting on the lower edge of the jawline. Lip Plates are large lip piercings stretched to the point where they can be worn flipped out/down. They can be solid disks or hollow rings. Madonna or Monroe piercings are labret studs worn on the upper lip where Marilyn Monroe had her famous mole. The Medusa or Philtrum piercing goes through the center of the upper lip, perpendicular to the tissue. Angelbites is the term used for two upper lip piercings on opposite sides of the mouth. Snakebites is the term used for two lower lip piercings on opposite sides of the mouth. They can be rings or studs. Spiderbites is the term used for two lower lip piercings on opposite sides of the mouth and a lebret or lip ring in the center (generally two rings and a labret, though it can be any combination rings or studs) Venombites is the term used for two lower lip piercings, side by side on either the left or right sides of the mouth. They can be a combination of rings or studs. Dual Labret/Dual lip piercing(s) is a term generally used for two piercings through the bottom lip, or lowbret piercings, placed next to each other at the center of the mouth. Though commonly labret studs, rings can be worn through the bottom lip. Dual lip piercing example [edit] History and culture Lip piercing continues to be practiced by several peoples, the most well-known of which are certain African tribes, who wear large decorative Lip plates or discs, usually in the lower lip. In contemporary society, lip piercings are relatively common piercings, especially amongst young people.
