Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ankyloglossia, also known as "tongue tie," is a condition in which the frenulum (the small band of tissue that connects the tongue to the floor of the mouth) is too short to allow for full range of tongue movement. This can cause difficulty with breastfeeding, speech, and other oral functions.
