Abstract

U ovome radu prikazan je sveobuhvatan pregled oralnih tjelesnih modifikacija s fokusom na postupke, materijale, povijest i moguće rizike. Piercing uključuje stvaranje perforacija u koži ili sluznici pomoću igle i umetanje nakita. Najčešći oralni piercing je piercing jezika. Za ovaj postupak ključno je poznavanje anatomije kako bi se izbjeglo oštećenje važnih anatomskih struktura. Drugi mogući oralni piercinzi su na lingvalnom ili labijalnom frenulumu, uvuli ili transgingivalno. Nakit za zube postaje sve popularniji estetski postupak. Uključuje opcije poput dragulja za zube, „grillza“ i dentalnih tetovaža. Dragulji za zube su mali, često šareni kristali pričvršćeni za zube. Zlatne krunice i grillzi, koji su uklonjivi komadi nakita, nude složenije ukrase. Dentalne tetovaže jedinstveni su dizajni na keramičkim krunicama. Intraoralne tetovaže su trajne tetovaže oralne sluznice. Rascjepljivanje jezika uključuje razdvajanje jezika po sredini kako bi se stvorio izgled „zmijskog jezika“. Ovaj čisto estetski postupak obično uključuje rezanje skalpelom ili kauterizaciju jezika. Povijesni kontekst pokazuje da su prakse tjelesnog ukrašavanja prisutne u mnogim drevnim kulturama zbog ceremonijalnih i društvenih svrha. Materijali za nakit varirali su od prirodnih tvari poput kostiju i drva do modernih metala i sintetičkih materijala. Materijali za nakit uključuju kirurški nehrđajući čelik, titan i bioplastiku, svaki s različitim zdravstvenim implikacijama. Bioplastika je lagana i biokompatibilna, ali može dovesti do većeg nakupljanja plaka i gubitka kosti u usporedbi s metalima. Izbor materijala utječe na oralno zdravlje, s različitim materijalima povezanim s različitim razinama plaka, recesijom desni i gubitkom kosti.

Abstract (english)

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of oral body modifications, focusing on procedures, materials, history, and potential risks. Piercing involves creating perforations in the skin or mucosa with a needle and inserting jewelry. The most common oral piercing is the tongue piercing. This procedure requires a thorough understanding of anatomy to avoid damaging important anatomical structures. Other possible oral piercings include those on the lingual or labial frenulum, uvula, or transgingival piercing. Tooth jewelry is becoming an increasingly popular aesthetic procedure. It includes options such as tooth gems, grillz, and dental tattoos. Tooth gems are small, often colorful crystals affixed to teeth. Gold crowns and grillz, which are removable pieces of jewelry, offer more elaborate decorations. Dental tattoos are unique designs on ceramic crowns. Intraoral tattoos are permanent tattoos on the oral mucosa. Tongue splitting involves dividing the tongue down the middle to create a "snake tongue" appearance. This purely aesthetic procedure usually involves scalpel cutting or cauterization of the tongue. Historical context shows that body adornment practices were present in many ancient cultures for ceremonial and social purposes. Materials for jewelry ranged from natural substances like bone and wood to modern metals and synthetic materials. Jewelry materials include surgical stainless steel, titanium, and bioplastics, each with different health implications. Bioplastic is lightweight and biocompatible but may lead to increased plaque buildup and bone loss compared to metals. Material choice affects oral health, with different materials associated with varying levels of plaque, gum recession, and bone loss.
