FOR PROFESSIONALS: Some adults sometimes encounter problems with general health , dental health , airway health and speech which are not improved even after skilled support and modifications. In these situations, it makes sense to evaluate the tongue mobility and the overall situation in detail. The “Frenulum-TOOL for ADULTS” serves for assessing and documenting eventual signs of an impaired tongue mobility for adults. The detailed clinical assessment includes the breastfeeding situation as a baby, weight gain patterns as baby and as adult, bottle feeding, eating solids, health symptoms, dental health symptoms and speech issues together with tongue function and further signs.

The ”Frenulum-TOOL for ADULTS” helps to decide whether to suggest an appointment with a frenotomy provider or not. This evaluation form is useful for the communication with the provider. From time to time, a revision is made based on further evidence and experience.
