I bought a pair of these for my lowbret piercings which were, at the time, in desperate need of help. Due to their exceptionally low placement, the over-sized metal labret stems were constantly rubbing on my gums whenever I moved my mouth, resulting in excruciating sores and gum recession.
After cutting these down to size (simply with a quick snip from some nail scissors, I fitted them into my lowbrets, and secured them with a pair of black Bioplast push-fit balls, which made things nice and easy - I didn't have to risk ruining the new stems with dodgy threading. After fitting the Bioplast stems, my gums eventually reverted back to normal and my lowbrets are pain free.
These things are great regardless of what your look is, as there are plenty of options for jewellery. As mentioned earlier, I opted for push-fit balls (there is a small selection including jeweled and clear), however the stems can be threaded with any metal attachment of your choice, making it great for any occasion.
One thing to watch out for is that the disc on the end is very small. It's been fine for me, but in piercings such as cheek piercings or anything else very fleshy, it could probably run the risk of embedding if the jewellery is even slightly too tight.
