If there is excessive tissue below the tongue, the tongue can not be moved properly. It usually ends up in speech problems and difficulty in eating. There is a minor surgery available for this. Called, "Lingual frenectomy' through which, the excess tissue can be removed. Nowadays, the procedure is painless with the invention of lasers. Visit your dentist today for further details.
