Tongue lesions constitute a considerable proportion of oral mucosal lesions, and are health concern to both oral health care providers and public. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of tongue lesions and conditions among a group of Jordanian population attending dental clinics, in addition to assessment of their symptoms, knowledge, and treatment provided for their tongue lesions. Study design: A total of 2000 dental out-patients were screened for tongue lesions. Results: Fissured tongue was the most common tongue lesion diagnosed in 11.5% of the subjects, followed by coated tongue (8.2%), geographic tongue (4.8%), hairy tongue (2.4%) and median rhomboid glossitis (0.5%). Symptoms were reported by 28% of the subjects with geographic tongue and 23% with fissured tongue. The majority of the subjects (ranging from 61.1%-86.4%) were neither aware about their tongue lesions nor worried about their prognosis. Less than 50% of those who were aware of their tongue lesions sought medical advice. Conclusion: The high prevalence of tongue lesions necessitates higher awareness of the general dental practitioner by their etiology, diagnosis and management.

Introduction: Breast milk is the most suitable feeding for all newborns and has numerous benefits widely described in the literature. For the extraction of milk, the suckling function of the newborn depends on adequate functioning of the tongue, including the lingual frenum. However, it is unclear the relationship among the lingual frenum and breast feeding. Purpose: To evaluate the lingual frenum in newborn infants and to verify their association with breast feeding. Methods: The sample consisted of 139 mother/infant binomials, who were born full term. For the anatomy-functional evaluation of the lingual frenum, the "Evaluation protocol of the lingual frenum for infants" was used. For the evaluation of the breast feeding, the "UNICEF observation protocol of breast feeding" was applied. To verify the association among the lingual frenum and breast feeding, the chi-square test was applied. Results: In the evaluation of the lingual frenulum of the 139 infants, it was verified only one infant with a frenum alteration, equivalent to a prevalence of 0.8%, was found. In the evaluation of breastfeeding, of the 138 binomials, whose infants did not have alteration of the lingual frenum, 82 of them (59.4%) did not demonstrated any difficulty during breast feeding. The only infant with lingual frenum alteration did not present difficulties in breast feeding. Conclusion: There are insufficient subsidies to establish an association among lingual frenum and breast feeding.

“…Não há consenso nos critérios utilizados para a avaliação e classificação anatômica do frênulo da língua, o que pode justificar a grande variação, entre 0,88% e 12,7%, nos índices de incidência (SEDANO et al, 1989;BALLARD;AUER;KHOURY, 2002;PEREIRA et al, 2002;MARCHESAN, 2003MARCHESAN, , 2005MARCHESAN, , 2010VÖRÖS-BALOG;VINCZE;BÁNÓCZY, 2003;BRAGA et al, 2009). Na literatura consultada, apenas um protocolo foi proposto para avaliação do frênulo lingual em bebês até seis meses de idade (HAZELBAKER, 1993).…”
