The aim is to achieve a  forked tongue that  with practice can be made to move independantly of the other half and separately controlled.  It is supposed to be very useful during oral sex or even licking out the corners of a chocolate pot or creme egg!

Tongue splitting is incredibly painful and the resulting wound is in turns hideous and prone to infection. Once the tongue has healed, however, you’re left with something surreal: a tongue that works as two. Some find it hideous and disgusting, but nobody can deny it’s interesting to see such a mundane part of the human body transformed into something spectacular.

Tongue splitting can be accomplished in a number of ways, one being using a previousley pierced hole that has healed and some fishing line.  Sorry if you want to know how to do that one you will have to look it up for yourself .  Not for any ethical or moral reasons just because it was making my stomach turn just reading about it!

The most recommended method is to seek an oral surgeon.  Any oral surgeon who uses a laser should be able to bifurcate a tongue with ease, providing their ethics allow it.  After applying anesthesia, using a laser, the practitioner will first create a guideline along the top and bottom of the tongue. Then, they'll slowly cut through the tissue until the tongue is fully bifurcated, cauterizing the wound as they cut.  This is usually, at most, a fifteen-minute process. In general, there is little to no blood during this stage. The only bleeding tends to be during suturing.

Laser procedures usually take 1-2 weeks for primary healing, and a month for the healing to be complete.
