Abstract

Introduction: Ankyloglossia is the abnormal development of the lingual frenulum that causes it to be short or thick, preventing the mobility of the tongue. The objective is to describe the anatomical characteristics of the lingual frenum in Neonates with Ankyloglossia treated at the E.S.E Hospital San Juan de Pamplona Methods: Qualitative, descriptive, correlational cross-sectional study, 26 neonates with a diagnosis of ankyloglossia reported in the clinical history were selected, from the
E.S.E Hospital San Juan de Dios in Pamplona, with ages from 0 to 29 days, in the period from January 2022 to June 2023. Results: 57.7% of the neonates are male and 42.3 % female, 65.4% had a thick lingual frenulum, 46.2% had fixation on the lingual apex and 100% were visible from the interior alveolar ridge. Analysis and Discussions: The characterization criteria of the anatomy of the lingual frenulum are inappropriate to apply to neonates, this makes the diagnostic process difficult, making it necessary to unify diagnostic criteria, as well as a universal classification, in this sense the anatomical characterization of the lingual frenulum on the thickness characteristics of the lingual frenulum and superior attachments and inform an imperative for advancement in the understanding of ankyloglossia. Conclusions: The thick lingual frenulum, with fixation between the middle third and/or apex and visible from the inner alveolar crest; These are the main anatomical characteristics of a lingual frenulum with ankyloglossia in neonates.
