"What are the Symptoms of Tongue Tie? Part I" featuring Dr. Stewart (TongueTieMD)

"The classic sounds that are tongue-tip sounds are things like L, D, Z. Those all require contact between the tip of the tongue and the teeth." Doctor Stewart, Otorhinolaryngologist-in-chief at New York Presbyterian Hospital, explains how children with tongue tie have trouble pronouncing certain sounds correctly.

im tongue tied and you get used to it..duh..no bad speech, it sounds perfect. The only flaw is you cant stick it out of your mouth far.

Jeez, they put you to sleep in America. In Britain, you're awake when they cut and stitch it.

The doctor told me I had a tongue tie, so I went for the operation when I was ten and woke up to find out that I actually had sum highly unusual thing going on that it would take like 15 hours or something to fix. I’m 15 now I don’t no weather it is worth going for.

My niece's tongue is tied. She's 7 weeks. I wish they would just clip it already. I hope she doesn't have any speech problems

@xblondiexbabe so they do, do this for a real reason i thought it was a fad amoung sick parents to help their children speak english better or something weird.

@FullCharge82 Haha, its girl. When I saw this video I was mad, to have it called a syndrome is insulting. To have it called a disease or a problem is terrible. I also realised this video is wrong, the doctor says u need to use your teeth to make a "t" when you really dont. Wow now im getting off topic. Thanks for the reply though xD

If I ever have children I will not have their tongue snipped.

@Chiyamaka You go girl/dude! I root for you all the way! :]

I have my tongue tied, and I speak 3 fluent languages. Seriously.
