If oral jewelry ([[tongue piercing]] or [[labret]] related) is rubbing on teeth, it can erode the enamel over time, leaving you more susceptible to dental infections and [[tooth decay]].

Minimize the risk of '''tooth abrasion''' by having properly placed and sized jewelry. Not everybody's anatomy allows them to have oral piercings without negative anatomical interactions - if you are one of these unlucky people, you're probably better off without the piercing (sorry).
