ABSTRACT
Ankyloglossia or tongue tie is a developmental anomaly of tongue characterized by an abnormally short, thick lingual frenum resulting in limitation of tongue movement. Ankyloglossia can adversely affect feeding, speech articulation, and oral hygiene maintenance. This case reports of a 22-year-old male with tongue tie who complained of difficulty in speech following which he underwent lingual frenectomy procedure with laser, without any complications. Diode lasers are compact and portable in design with efficient and reliable benefits for use in soft-tissue oral surgical procedure.
