The restrictive tongue tie

The tongue plays an important role in the development of myofunctional balance and beyond. For this reason, a tongue tie that restricts the tongue's function can have far-reaching consequences. Depending on the age group, this can lead to difficulties with breastfeeding or issues with food intake. It can also result in dental and jaw misalignments, abnormalities in speech development, breathing, or sensorimotor development. The authors scientifically address all aspects of the topic for patients of all ages, drawing on their practical experiences as dentists, orthodontists, osteopaths, physiotherapists, speech therapists, and lactation consultants.
