Tongue Piercings

Tongue web/Under the Tongue/Marley/Frenulum Piercing

Tongue piercing is one of the body piercing services we offer at Essential Beauty & Piercing. This piercing is located under the tongue where the connective tissue attaches the tongue to base of the mouth.

Sometimes known as the tongue web, this piercing is completely hidden (unless you intentionally show it off).

It’s perfect for people that aren’t allowed to have piercings visible for any reason.

Jewellery type

There is no specialised body jewellery for this piercing but there are several options of general body jewelry types that are perfect.

Initial jewellery for the tongue web piercing includes 16 gauge short (8-10 millimeters in length) as a banana or circular barbell.

Healing process

The tongue web piercing has a short healing time of 4 to 6 weeks.

To clean this piercing, make sure you use non-alcohol based mouthwash and be sure that you’re keeping your mouth as free as possible from the residue food and other debris. Rinse with warm salt water a couple of times a day.
