<\/span><\/p>\n

Tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) is a condition occurring at birth when the strip of skin attaching the infant’s tongue to their mouth’s bottom is shorter than typical.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tongue-tie is caused by an abnormally short, thick, or tight tissue band (lingual frenulum) tethering the bottom of the tongue’s tip to the mouth’s floor, which might hinder breastfeeding.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tongue-tie can have an impact on a baby’s oral growth, in addition to how they eat, talk, and swallow.<\/span><\/p>\n
