A lip or tongue tie occurs when the tissue connecting the lip or tongue is unusually tight, thick, or short, restricting normal movement. A tongue tie (lingual frenulum) or lip tie (labial frenulum) can sometimes interfere with feeding, speech development, oral hygiene, or normal tongue and lip movement.
