Why Titanium at Keisha's
For all our tongue web piercings, we use implant-grade titanium jewellery to guarantee safety and comfort in this sensitive area. Titanium is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for moist environments like the mouth. Unlike lower-quality metals that can cause irritation or infections, our titanium barbells and rings help ensure a clean, speedy healing process. This means you can enjoy your unique piercing with less worry and more confidence.
Aftercare
Clean regularly: Rinse your mouth 2–3 times daily with a non-alcoholic, antimicrobial mouthwash or sterile saline solution; avoid alcohol-based mouthwashes.
Pro tips: Avoid touching or playing with the jewellery Don’t smoke or consume spicy, acidic, or hot foods and drinks during healing Stay away from alcohol and caffeine as they can irritate the piercing Maintain good oral hygiene but be gentle around the piercing site Avoid oral contact (kissing, oral sex) until fully healed
Our sterile saline solution (£8.99 at our counter) can be used to clean the external area gently and help keep the piercing healthy.
