Yes you can still get a monroe piercing and it should be fine. But I got my monroe done about 2 months ago, and I took care of it everyday, but for some reason it started to hurt and rub up against my gums all the time, and I noticed where it was rubbing at my gum started to turn black and blue so I took it out. I must say it was cute while it lasted but its so much more of a relief because now I can go to work without putting the clear one in back and forth. Depending on what job you get you might have to take it out and replace it with a clear one. Here is some information about it.
Monroe piercings is that they generally heal faster than other piercings. The estimated healing time given by professional piercers for this type of lip piercing is between 8-12 weeks [1] but many find it heals in 6 weeks or less. Also, because the mouth contains enzymes that can kill bacteria, the chances of getting an infection are less.
However, this doesn’t mean that there aren’t any risks involved.
Infection: it can still happen, especially if the site is not kept clean whilst healing (the exposure and subsequent breakdown of food/organic substances being the main cause of infection)
Blisters and swelling: can be diminished by keeping the area clean and using ice to numb the site.
Extended healing time: smoking or drinking during the healing period can irritate the piercing and delay healing
Damage to the gums and teeth: if you choose to wear a metal labret-
(which they will pierce you with) stud the back disc can rub against your teeth and gums whenever you eat, speak or move your lips, causing gum recession and/or surface damage to the teeth. One way around this is to wear a plastic labret-stud, such as BioFlex or BioPlast products, which still allow you to attach jewels and other items to the front.
Whatever you choose good luck ! Im sure it will turn out great = )

it wont even touch them.
i know about 4 people who have
braces and a monroe piercing.

i would say yes but just make sure your piercer puts the stud high enough that it wont get tangled in your braces cause that could really hurt.
-
yes you can still get one. i dont think it would get hooked on your braces or anything like that. my cousin has her’s done and she has braces and she doesnt have any problems with it.
