Severe Ankyloglossia and its Surgical Management: Case Report

Abstract

Ankyloglossia or tongue-tie is a singularly congenital case qualified by a specific no elastic and dense frenum within lingual muscle. Also it’s occurs when there is an union of the tongue’s body to the mouth’s floor, reducing her motion [1]. Its prevalence ranged of 0.02% to 12%. Lack of unified consensus may explain these rates changing on prevalence of ankyloglossia [2]. A higher incidence revealed in studies exploring neonates in comparison to those realized in other population was revealed by Reddy et al. 2014 [3]. The authors suggested the resolution of beginner variants of ankyloglossia during development justifying the age related difference of prevalence [4].
