Ankyloglossia, commonly referred to as tongue-tie, is a medical condition where the tongue's movement is restricted due to an abnormally short frenulum. This condition can lead to difficulties in breastfeeding and speech issues. There are several synonyms used for ankyloglossia, including oral frenulum. Other common terms used to describe this condition include lingual frenulum, frenulum linguae, and tongue-tied. Ankyloglossia can be corrected through surgery or physical therapy, and it is essential for parents to seek appropriate medical care for their child if they suspect a tongue-tie condition. The right treatment can help improve a child's quality of life and overall well-being.
