Area of Science:

  • Oral anatomy and congenital anomalies.
  • Dental and medical case reports.

Background:

  • The lingual frenulum, a fold of mucous membrane under the tongue, is crucial for tongue function.
  • Anomalies like ankyloglossia and absence of the lingual frenulum are known.
  • This report highlights a rare double lingual frenulum.

Observation:

  • A 10-year-old Saudi girl presented with malpositioned frontal teeth.
  • Intraoral examination revealed two lingual frenula connecting the tongue to the floor of the mouth.
  • No other oral abnormalities were noted.

Findings:

  • The patient had a double lingual frenulum, a rare lingual frenulum anomaly.
  • This condition did not affect the patient's normal tongue function.
  • This may be the first reported case of a double lingual frenulum.

Implications:

  • Awareness of double lingual frenulum is important for dental and medical practitioners.
  • This case expands the understanding of lingual frenulum variations.
  • Further research may be needed to determine the prevalence and functional impact of this anomaly.
