mayonnaise answered Saturday August 12 2006, 10:19 pm: Hello. I have over 20 piercings, including the lip. You could have gotten it done with a stud, I did. But its also the piercers' personal preference on what to do. To answer your question, yes, you can put a labret or monroe in it, just wait about 3 or 4 months. Yes, it will do stuff to your gums and teeth. [ mayonnaise's advice column | Ask mayonnaise A Question ]

You won't know if it will damage teeth and gums until you try.
If the stud rubs on your gums, it can wear it down, exposing the tooth, causing many problems in the future, such as gum disease.
If you notice anything like this, or if it causes discomfort, take it out right away. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
