At rest, the light and constant pressure of the tongue against the hard palate, counterbalanced by the pressure provided by proper lip sealing, serves as a guide for maxillary growth. Ankyloglossia makes tongue coupling against the hard palate difficult, impacting maxillary development, which may lead to breathing disorders.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Objective\u2003To verify the effect of lingual frenotomy on the resting position of the tongue and lips in infants with ankyloglossia.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods\u2003The sample consisted of 334 infants aged between 1 and 60 days old diagnosed with ankyloglossia. The groups were divided in: a) experimental group (EG), which consisted of infants whose mothers agreed with lingual frenotomy; b) control group (CG), which consisted of infants whose mothers either refused lingual frenotomy or were waiting for surgery. Both the position of the lips and of the tongue at rest were assessed while the infants were sleeping during the quiet sleep phase. For mothers who refused their infants to undergo the surgical procedure, a follow-up of the infants was proposed to verify possible interference of the frenulum with the resting position of the tongue and lips. Infants whose mothers agreed with surgery were referred for lingual frenotomy.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003Regarding the position of the tongue and lips at rest at the initial and final assessments, the statistical analysis demonstrated significant differences between both groups.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003Lingual frenotomy enabled infants diagnosed with ankyloglossia to maintain both tongue coupling against the hard palate and closed lips at rest.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1726050","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,5]],"date-time":"2021-07-05T23:48:41Z","timestamp":1625528921000},"page":"e069-e074","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Effect of Lingual Frenotomy on Tongue and Lip Rest Position: A Nonrandomized Clinical Trial"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5791-2575","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roberta Lopes Castro","family":"Martinelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lingual frenulum inspection Department, Hospital Santa Therezinha, Brotas, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6483-7457","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Irene Queiroz","family":"Marchesan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Speech and Myofunctional Disorders Department, CEFAC Health and Education, S\u00e3o Paulo, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4349-770X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reinaldo Jord\u00e3o","family":"Gusm\u00e3o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cl\u00ednica Respirare Otorhinolaryngology Department, Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8614-2805","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gi\u00e9dre","family":"Berretin-Felix","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences Department, Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo, Bauru, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,5]]},"reference":[{"issue":"01","key":"ref1","first-page":"18","article-title":"The Ortho missing link: could it be tied to the tongue","volume":"15","author":"L Cockley","year":"2015","journal-title":"JAOS"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref2","first-page":"1183","article-title":"Hypodevelopment of the tongue: embryonic basis and consequences for the development of craniofacial structures","volume":"3","author":"T GP Genovez","year":"2016","journal-title":"Int J Dent Health Sci"},{"issue":"03","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e41","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2007.09.028","article-title":"Complete and isolated congenital aglossia: case report and treatment of sequelae using rapid prototyping models","volume":"105","author":"F Salles","year":"2008","journal-title":"Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref4","first-page":"762","article-title":"Aglossia: a rare case report and review","volume":"35","author":"M Nayyer","year":"2015","journal-title":"Pak Oral Dent J"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"87","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0034-1544116","article-title":"Aglossia: Case Report","volume":"20","author":"S Bommarito","year":"2016","journal-title":"Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e361","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2009.07.017","article-title":"Relationship between the lingual frenulum and craniofacial morphology in adults","volume":"139","author":"S J Jang","year":"2011","journal-title":"Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"44","DOI":"10.1186\/2196-1042-14-44","article-title":"Skeletal and dental characteristics in subjects with ankyloglossia","volume":"14","author":"B Srinivasan","year":"2013","journal-title":"Prog Orthod"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref8","first-page":"25","article-title":"Ankyloglossia and its influence on maxillary and mandibular development.
