Answer
Question: My girl-friend has pierced her tongue. Does «Panmed» clinic make piercing of a tongue or lips?
Answer: The basic principle of our clinic and, healing as a whole, is Non nocere! - do not make harm! Piercing comes from an English -"piercing" - meaning "puncture", "prick" and is made for further wearing of imitation jewelry or jewelry pieces.
Professional dental and general medicine literature say that piercing may be complicated by such serious diseases as Ludwig's angina, AIDS, hepatitis B and hepatitis C, sepsis. When making a pierce, a nerve and an artery are, practically, always damaged. Nerve trauma leads to a disturbance of taste sensitivity, correct pronunciation of sounds is also disturbed, lisping appears, etc. If a tongue artery or vein has been damaged (the tongue contains plenty of arteries and veins and it is impossible to leave them intact at piercing) a hemorrhage occurs with all its consequences. The very presence of imitation jewelry in the mouth leads to the chronic trauma of the gums and tongue, sometimes teeth scales, etc. The list of complications may be long but even what we have mentioned is enough to say that piercing is something outside of the common sense.
