Is Ankyloglossia Correlated With Pediatric Sleep Disordered Breathing? A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
An increasing breadth of conditions and symptoms are being ascribed to ankyloglossia. As diagnosis of ankyloglossia and frequency of frenotomy exponential increase, it is important to have an understanding of the associated evidence. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for ankyloglossia's association with sleep disordered breathing in ...
