How do you know if your gums are deteriorating from lip piercing?

The area in question will be noticeably more recessed than the other gum lines around it. These are most prevalent in labret piercings, whereas tooth chipping and the like is more common with actual lip piercings. In many instances, this denotes that the rod of your jewelry is just a bit too long and the foot then rubs on the gums when eating and smiling in addition to many other things that you do throughout a day. Try to get a stud with a shorter post and see if that works. Still though, sometimes there is nothing to be done about this and you just have to retire the piercing for the greater good of your oral care.

Why is it bad to have lip piercing?
I wouldn't say that lip piercings are bad. Just like any other piercing, a lip piercing comes with risks. The biggest ones are gum and enamel erosion. The jewelry can rub against your teeth and gums and basically wear it away. Its irreversible without surgery. Depending on your anatomy, it could be inevitable. Your piercer hs to look at the area and find the best placement so that theres minimal contact between gums/teeth and the jewelry. its pretty gradual so if you keep an eye on it, you can remove the piercing before it gets really bad.
