How long can I leave my tongue ring out?!


Question: How long can I leave my tongue ring out.?
I've had it in for about a year. I'm going to the dentist for the first time and they have said that they want me to take it out just for the cleaning so they can work around it and then I can put it back in after. I'm afraid about it closing up though. If I take it out for about an hour am I ok.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
You will be fine. If you have had it for a year, you can leave it out for about 3 to 4 days with out it closing up.




You should take it out at least every few days to clean it!!!Health Question & Answer

Hmm, that's a tough call. Ur tongue heals faster than anything else in ur body, so it might be painful trying to get it back in. Idk though, Ive never had mine pierced!

I hate doing this, but I need answers...
