Postoperative Tongue Exercises for Ankyloglossia Following Lingual Frenectomy: A Case Report.

Ankyloglossia, also named tongue-tie, is an innate developmental anomaly where the lingual frenum appears anchored to the sublingual space. Even though it is not considered a major congenital condition, it can create a variety of problems, such as difficulty in feeding newborns, difficulty in mastication, speech problems, poor oral hygiene, malocclusion, and hindrance in social interaction because of restricted tongue movements. Lingual frenectomy is the treatment of choice.
