What is Tongue Tie? (Ankylogossia)

Tongue Tie, also known as, Ankyloglossia, is a congenital oral condition that limits tongue and lip movement. This limitation has a direct impact on the following:

Breastfeeding

The baby is unable to get enough milk, which results in failure to thrive issues. The infant may have issues choking, gagging, or latching. Mothers can experience sore nipples, clogged ducts, and other breast issues.

Orofacial Growth

Children with tongue and lip ties may develop dental problems and a gap between their front teeth.

Speech Development

By the age of 3, a large number of the children with Tongue Tie develop significant speech problems.


It is important to diagnose and correct these issues early if possible as they become much more difficult to correct later in life To learn more, call our office at 724-997-1496.
