Tongue-tie and social skills

Tongue-tie and social skills

Social skills refer to the ability to communicate and interact effectively with others.

 They are important for building and maintaining positive relationships and navigating social situations.

There is some evidence to suggest that tongue-tie may be associated with difficulties in social skills.

 For example, a study of children with tongue-tie found that they had significantly lower scores on measures of social skills compared to children without tongue-tie. 

In addition, difficulties with speaking and other oral activities associated with tongue-tie may contribute to difficulties with social skills.

However, it is important to note that tongue-tie and social skills are two separate issues, and more research is needed to understand the nature of this relationship.

 If you or a loved one is experiencing difficulties with social skills or has been diagnosed with tongue-tie, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and treatment.
