Wearing intra-oral jewelry can lead to the development of severe mucogingival defects and necessitates careful and comprehensive periodontal evaluations on a regular basis to monitor attachment loss and damage to dental structures. Patients must be educated about these risks through counseling, patient information brochures and individual case documentation.
