The lingual frenulum is a vertical fold of mucous membrane that connects the tongue to the mouth floor. This congenital defect can result in diastema, difficulty moving the tongue, feeding problems, speech problems, and other mechanical and social challenges. A persons social communication and mechanical issues are exacerbated if this abnormality is not diagnosed early. Speech issues can be resolved by speech therapy if doctors discover and repair this aberration in early childhood via frenectomy, however owing to the ignorance of the individuals parents and clinicians, this anomaly occasionally goes unnoticed and causes speech problems throughout life. As a result, ankyloglossia treatment should be addressed at any age based on a risk-benefit analysis. The current study looks at two case reports of ankyloglossia, or tongue-tie, that were successfully treated using a diode laser.
