Abstract

Tongue-tie is a congenital anomaly characterized by an abnormally short lingual frenum, which may restrict tongue tip mobility, In the neonate and infant, tongue-tie was said to cause difficult breast-feeding, In the older infant, toddler and young child, poor speech has been frequently listed because movement of tongue tip is limit ed. Also as a abnormal tongue position, various orthodontic problems, later mechanical and social manifestations could be developed. Treatment options such as observation, speech therapy, frenotomy and frenectomy have been suggested. The optimal timing for the surgery has not been determined, but early intervention may be appropriate for the children with significant tongue-tie who has the significant potential to speech difficulties and later social and mechanical problems. Sedation is an effective method for incapable of cooperative and the handicapped children, necessary to early intervention. We report three cases, using oral sedation for the frenectomy in young children with severe tongue-tie. After treatments, we could find out sufficient tongue movement and improved speech ability.

설유착증(tongue-tie)은 비정상적으로 짧은 설소대로 인하여 혀의 움직임이 제한되는 것을 의미한다. 영유아에서 심한 설유착증은 수유곤란을 야기하기도 하고, 증상이 지속적으로 존재할 때는 혀의 운동범위가 제한되어 발음문제를 야기할 수 있다. 또한 비정상적인 혀의 위치로 인해 여러 가지 교정적인 문제를 초래 할 뿐만 아니라, 기능적, 사회적 장애요소로 작용할 수도 있다. 설유착증의 치료방법으로는 관찰, 언어치료, 단순절개술 그리고 절제술 등이 있는데, 수술시기에 대한 논란은 있지만 정도가 심하여 장기간 언어장애가 지속되거나 교정적인 문제를 야기 할 것으로 판단되는 경우 조기수술이 권장되고 있다. 진정요법은 조기치료가 필요한 나이가 어리고 비협조적인 환아들이나, 신체적, 정신적 이유로 통상적 인 치과진료에 어려움이 있는 환아들에게 효과적으로 사용될 수 있는 방법이다. 본 증례는 설유착증으로 수술이 필요하나 협조전단계인 환아를 대상으로 경구투여를 이용한 진정요법으로 소대절제술을 시행하여 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.
