Why do people do this?

This is a ridiculous trend. The inside of the mouth doesn't heal great, the ink falls out even with lip tattoos, you have to jam your hand up in someone's germy gross mouth and no one can see it anyway.

Instead of spending so much money on the tattoo, some of them should see a dentist!!

If you've always wanted a tattoo but don't want it in a place others can see it, why not put it in a place YOU can see it?

Getting a tattoo is painful (I have 7), but this a new frontier in that department, I would imagine. I would also imagine this would make oral surgery rather pleasant--these people all had to be upside down for this procedure, that ink in their mouths (maybe like being water-boarded?) and I am also assuming they could not eat during the healing process. Yeesh...No thanks.

I don't know why this story has gotten so many down votes. It's weird, and obviously not everyone's cup of tea, but it's not offensive in any way. That's the only reason I would give a negative rating.

What is bothers me most it's not the tattoo itself but that you can see people's teeth from a different angle and you can see rotten teeth more clearly.

What I found more fascinating than the tattoos,were the differences in pallets, the occasional signs of illness, and signs of a definite need for better dental care

This is one of the most disgusting posts I've ever seen on Bored Panda -- far worse than any weird-looking deep sea fish with huge teeth, etc.

Nope. I have lots of tattoos, but nope. Plus it must hurt like hell.

Uh... why?

i hate people who are down voting this. it is the persons choice, and the tattoo itself is done amazingly. also, a lot of people who have worse teeth than u didn't have proper dental care as children. and, @boredpanDaman it is not useless and what they do is their choice. @Rose all i can think is why did u open that thread, just 4 the upvotes? @MemeMee good for u u have an opinion. but its not stupid just cause u wouldnt want it. it might hurt, but so what? thay want it, so good 4 u they probably dont give a sh*t what you think. And I think it is sooooo dumb how people that say it is cool, that they like it, are getting downvoted, and the disgusting animals saying the people getting it are stupid are getting upvoted! Where has the human race GONE? Clementines as presidents and so so so many jerks. Why does everyone have to be so rude. Im just gonna go ahead and guess that there are many adults here, am i wrong? Im 11 y.o. and I know people have their own opinions and preferences and what they like. Adults should have more brains than kids, not less, although they are the ones that voted for a clementine, but that is (semi)unrelated. The tattoos are done well, and that is basically the point of the article. Not the state of their teeth, and certainly not if YOU like it or not. Suck it up. People are gonna make their own opinions and choices and u can't control that. Downvote me all u want, i dont care.

Everyone who is saying “ewww disgusting” and “ his teeth need work” imagin if somone came up to you and said eww your teeth looks bad and so does your Hair IT IS THESE PEOPLES CHOISES PLZ DONT JUDGE

Not saying it’s stupid not saying those ppl r dumb just wincing in pain

I really like it, especially the "Om" ones. I wish I knew what they other symbols mean. I know a few are Wiccan, but don't remember the meaning. I can also see how there could be significance of the placement. Like writing a name over your heart, or wings on your heals. That idea is why I like the "Om", it has significance.

this is really cool! must be fun having a secret tattoo

So stupid.

this is so weird, id never do it. just saying!

I’m cringing so hard rn

This is sooo stupid! I can't understand why any would do this

This is absolutely disgusting, but at least James Bond would have something to look at after he knocks out the guards.

Cool but most of these are fake, same dude in quite a few photos..

Attention seeking hipster fuckwits. If you want a secret tattoo why the hell have it photographed and put on the internet. No problem with where its is or tattoos,I'm covered,and yes,I have inner lip tattoos,but it's the "look at me,I'm kind ,sorta,wannabe noticed " thick attitude.
