Labial ankyloglossia - a case report on fusion of frenums

Abstract

Labial ankyloglossia is a rare condition where the lingual frenum is found to be continuous with the labial frenum. It is a rare condition that can have a significant impact on a patient’s quality of life. Early recognition and appropriate intervention can lead to substantial improvements in speech, oral hygiene, and overall well-being. This case report underscores the importance of considering labial ankyloglossia as a differential diagnosis in patients with lip-related issues and highlights the potential benefits of surgical correction in improving lip function and aesthetics.
