Tongue training for cunnilingus

The bridle is a film. The tongue is attached by this film to the lower jaw, to the oral cavity. The normal length of the frenulum is 1.5 centimeters. If it is smaller than usual, then the movements of the tongue are limited. It happens that it is shorter than usual or is in the wrong place. All this interferes with speaking correctly. And people with such problems wonder how to fix it so as not to cause themselves pain. If infants have such a pathology, then this prevents them from latching onto the breast correctly. But how to lengthen your tongue? The methods below will help you make your tongue longer.

Signs of an abnormal (shortened) frenulum

A normal frenulum of the tongue in a newborn should be about 8 mm long. By the age of five, its length can increase to 17-18 mm.

Signs of a lack of frenulum length in infants:

• feeding lasts longer than usual and occurs with short stops;
• the baby is capricious when feeding;
• the child arches, throws back his head;
• underweight;
• the baby bites the breast and “clicks” when feeding;
• The baby may refuse to breastfeed.

Signs of a short frenulum of the tongue in older children and adult patients:

• malocclusion;
• frequently recurring periodontitis;
• problematic fixation of prostheses;
• difficulties in pronouncing many sounds;
• periodontal diseases.

A shortened frenulum is also indicated by:

• lower incisors directed inward;
• bifurcation of the tip of the tongue and its deepening when trying to stretch it;
• inability to reach the tip of the tongue to the sky or lick your lips;
• the tongue is uneven, its lower end is pressed, and its rear end is raised;
• have difficulty swallowing solid food;
• heart-shaped tongue in an elevated position;
• the tongue bends as it moves forward.

If a shortened frenulum of the tongue is detected, its correction is required. And the sooner this is done, the better.

There are different types of tongue frenulum anomalies:

• thin transparent (because of it the tongue functions poorly, but the child does not feel discomfort);
• translucent, with a bifurcating ending when the tongue moves;
• thick, attached to the lower palate and noticeably limiting its mobility;
• short, fused with the muscles of the tongue;
• unexpressed, difficult to notice due to complete fusion with the muscles (the tongue moves with difficulty, swallowing food is difficult and speech disorders are observed).

In each case, the doctor determines the degree of shortening of the frenulum and the method of treating the anomaly.

Hidden sources of psychosomatics of language in the studies of famous adherents of metaphysics.

Louise Hay sees the reasons contributing to the emergence of language pathologies in such emotions and mental trauma, and recommends repeated repetition of affirmations to combat them (see table):

Popular researcher Liz Burbo points out the most common pathologies of the tongue: ulcers, cancer, damage, tumors, numbness, burns, biting. From the author's point of view, the main problems with language indicate to the patient his feeling of guilt about eating or saying something unnecessary. So, if the victim bit his tongue, the psychosomatics of the injury indicates a feeling of guilt about what was said or planned.

Given that the tongue performs various functions, Liz Burbo recommends using additional questions to accurately determine what the patient feels guilty about. She recommends that the victim not blame himself for his love of food and realize that any pain in the tongue indicates his incorrect perception of good and evil. The researcher advises him to try to express himself and develop unconditional love.

The famous doctor Luule Viilma believes that problems with language, based on the psychosomatics of diseases, have the following sources (see table):

The creator of the “New German Medicine”, Dr. R.G. Hamer explains the metaphysics of language pathologies with various personal conflicts that grip the victim when a Special Biological Program of the superficial mucous membrane of the lips and mouth arises:

• Complete or partial paralysis of the tongue, psychosomatics with a motor conflict - I can’t, don’t want, or I can’t say something, regret about what was said;
• Inflamed mucous membrane of the tongue during scarlet fever in the healing phase of the separation conflict during the restoration of squamous epithelium;
• Painful point erosions, ulcerations of the oral mucosa in the conflict of separation regarding the lips, mouth or tongue: to be separated or, conversely, the desire to separate, to separate; not being able or willing to say something; regret what was said; want or, conversely, not want contact; regarding food or diet instructions.

Indications for surgery

Abnormal frenulum length is corrected surgically. Surgery at an early age is indicated in the following cases:

• when the baby has difficulty sucking the breast;
• when a child begins to develop an abnormal bite;
• when a displacement of the dentition occurs in the baby’s oral cavity;
• even if the speech therapist cannot help the child correct speech defects.

Up to a year, the frenulum is cut with scissors and stitches are applied if necessary. The operation is performed quickly and painlessly, since there are no nerve endings in the frenulum.

Preschoolers and children of primary school age also have their frenulum cut, but a little differently. The frenulum is cut with a special scalpel, and the attachment site is moved to another place and sutures are applied.

Teenagers' bridles are not cut. A speech therapist works with them, and the dentist prescribes special exercises to stretch the frenulum.

Correction of the frenulum can also be indicated for patients in adulthood (at one of the stages of orthopedic treatment).

Plastic frenulum of the tongue

The operation can be performed using two methods:

• traditional (using a scalpel);
• using a surgical laser.

The procedure is always performed on an outpatient basis. During the operation, local anesthesia is used.

With the traditional surgical option of correcting the frenulum of the tongue, excision of old scars is required if the frenulum has already been trimmed in infancy. A submucosal flap is also formed and the attachment site of the lingual frenulum is transferred. After cutting, special self-absorbing sutures are applied.

During the operation, it is necessary to constantly monitor the condition of the mouths of the ducts of the sublingual and submandibular salivary glands. This is necessary to avoid damage.

Laser treatment has significant advantages over traditional dental surgery:

• accuracy,
• bacteriostatic effect,
• no bleeding,
• no stitches required,
• more comfortable conditions for the patient.

Laser equipment operates in non-contact mode. The dentist directs the sapphire tip of a laser device to the frenulum, which forms a well-focused beam. This laser beam effectively “dissolves” tissue in the desired location. The operation lasts no more than 5 minutes.
