The tongue piercing process is usually like this: * A clamp is put on the tongue to hold it in place for the actual piercing. This can feel uncomfortable, but it doesn't hurt. * A thin tube is placed on the point where the piercing should go. * The needle is put in this tube and then pierced through the tongue. * The piercing is then placed through the needle and closed up with the ball ends. If done by a professional, s/he will keep all utensils absolutely sanitized the entire time (including the tongue ring).
First you will be given a disposable cup of Listerine or quite possibly a stronger grade mouthwash. You will then swish the solution for at least 30 seconds, and then spit this into the cup.
Then the piercer will clean off your tongue with a paper towel, mark the area to pierce with a sterile skin scribe, and will then clamp the tongue with a Sponge clamp.
Then the piercer will pierce from the top of the tongue to the bottom, cork the needle, and then transfer the jewelry through. You may or may not be given additional mouthwash to swish, this is at the discretion of the piercer.

Done wrong, a piercing can definitely cause paralysis on the face... whether the piercing is ear, tongue, nose, etc.
Actually you can move the Barbell (not a ring) up and down once the piercing is done, however playing with the jewelelry in a fresh tongue piercing will irritate the piercing and promote swelling.
