Introduction :
 Muscular organ (mass of striated
muscle covered with MM) in FOM
 Functions :
 Taste
 Speech
 Mastication
 Deglutition

Anatomy
 A root – attached to
mandible - above
Hyoid bone - below
 A tip – free ant.
at rest lies behind
upper incisors
 A body / dorsumconvex,2parts

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 ORAL PART (ant 2/3) PAPILLARY-in FOM
- Margins are free contact gums & teeth
- Sup surface-median furrow & papillae,rough
- Inf surface-smooth MM & median fold frenulum
lingue
 PHARYNGEAL PART (Post 1/3)LYMPHOID-in
pharynx
- Post surface,MM,no papillae-lymphoids&
mucous glands
 Seperated by V-shaped sulcus-sulcus terminalis
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Papillae:projections of MM,ant2/3,rough
- Vallate ,fungiform,filiform,foliate
 Muscles:
- Extrinsic- genioglossus,hyoglossus
styloglossus, palato glossus ,
 Intrinsic- sup longitudinal,Inf
longitudinal,T/s & vertical muscle
 Genioglossus-protrusion
 Hyoglossus-retraction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Blood supply:
- Lingual art (br ECA) & Lingual vein
Nerve supply:
 Motor- all muscles-hypogossal n.
Palatgossus-cr accessory n.
 Sensory- ant 2/3-lingual (gen sensation)
- Chorda tympani (taste)
- Post 1/3-glossopharyngeal n
- Post most –vagus thro int laryngeal n
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Development
 Begins at 4th wk, 1st 3rd & 4th br arches
 Pharyngeal arches meet in midline below the
stomodeum
 Local proliferation of the mesenchyme- 1st
arch
 Tuberculum impar-in midline
 Lingual swellings-laterally
 Lingual swelling enlarge merge with
tuberculum impar- ant2/3 tongue
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Hypobranchial eminence-large midline
swelling-from mesenchyme of 3rd br archgrows rapidly than 2nd arch
 It gives-post 1/3 tongue/root
 Post most part-4th arch
 Tongue seperates from the FOM by
downgrowth of the ectoderm around its
periphery-degenerates to form lingual
sulcus-mobility of tongue
 Muscles-occipital myotomes
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Functions of normal tongue
- Has several imp function of intrest to the
orthodontist
- Mastication,deglutition,speech,breathing
- EQUILIBRIUM & DEVELOPMENT OF
THE DENTAL OCCLUSION
 Mastication :
- placing food in position (ant & lateral
portions of body)
- Pushing food buccaly during Mastication
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Deglutition:
- Forming & propelling bolus in to
pharynx(1st stg of swallowing)
- After swallowing tongue contact hard
palate while soft palate is pulled away
downward against the post portion of the
tongue
 Speech:
- Formation of sounds - s,z,t,d,sh,e,g,is
- Elevation of tongue tip behind maxi
incisors as in ‘s’
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Breathing :
 Nasal breathing-tongue in rest position
 In forced mouth breathing-habit,exertion
- Mandible is depressed,lips are opened
- Tongue contacts laterally with lingual
surfaces of mandi teeth dropping away
from maxilla
- The ant portion is lowered lies on lingual
surfaces of mandi ant teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
EQUILIBRIUM & DEVELOPMENT
OF THE DENTAL OCCLUSION
EQUILIBRIUM THEORY:
 As applied in engg “An object subjected
to unequal forces will be accelerated &
there by will move to a different position
in space”
It follows that if any object is subjected to
a set of forces but remains in the same
position, those forces must be in balance
or equilibrium
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 From this
perspective,dentition is
in equilibrium as they
do not move to a new
location under usual
circumstances
(mastication,swallowin
g,speaking)
 ‘Tooth movement
occurs only when the
equilibrium against
dentition is
unbalanced’
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Contributors to the dental equilibrium:
Various factors-effect of
pressures,magnitude & its duration
 Masticatory forces
 Soft tissue pressures from the lips,cheeks
& TONGUE
 External pressures- habits & orthodontic
forces
 Intrinsic pressures-gingival & PDL fibers
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Soft tissue pressures from the lips,cheeks &
TONGUE:

 Rest,swallowing,speaking
 Though pressure are much lighter than
masticatory but longer duration
 Studies-very light forcs are succesful in
moving teeth if the force is longer duration
 So light sustained pressures from the
lips,cheeks & TONGUE at rest are imp
determinants of tooth position
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Injury to soft
tissue of lipsscarring
&contracture
 Incisors moved
lingualy as lips
tightens against
them- altered
equilibrium

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 No lip/cheeks
(tropical infection)
 Teeth move
labially/buccaly in
rsponse to
unoposed pressure
from the tongue

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Pressure from the
tonguemacroglossia/patho
/abnormal posture
 labial displacement
of teeth though lips
& cheeks are
intact-altered
equilibrium

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 From this equilibrium theory;light
sustained pressure by the tongue
against teeth has significant role in
development of OB (proffit)
 If a pt has a forward resting posture
of the tongue the duration of the
pressure even light could affect tooth
position(vertical & H/Z)

SWALLOWING
Acc T.M Graber 1200-2000/day,4pb of
pr/swallow(cl-II div1,openbite-more)
 Normal swallowing
 Abnormal swallowing
 Infantile (visceral) swallowing
 Mature (somatic) swallowing
 Simple -tongue thrust swallowing
 Copmlex-tongue thrust swallowing
 RETAINED INFANTILE SWALLOW
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Normal swallowing
 Teeth are in
contact,lips-closed
 Dorsum of tongue
closely touch the
palate
 Tip of the tongueinterdental papillae
of maxi incisors
 No tongue thrust
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Infantile(visceral) swallowing
Acc Moyers
 The jaws are apart
with tongue b/w gum
pads
 Mandible stabilizedcontraction of facial
muscles (buccinator)
& interposed tongue
 Swallow guide sensory interchange
b/w lips & tongue
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Change to semi solid & solid food & the
eruption of teeth-mature swallow
(1yr/18mos)
 The normal appearance of feature of both
the infantile & mature swallowTRANSITIONAL SWALLOW
- Diminishing of buccinator activity
- Appearance of contraction of mandi
elevators-stabilise occlusion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Mature (somatic) swallowing
 Teeth together
swallow
 Mandible
stabilizedcontraction of
elevators
 Tongue tip touch
palate lightly above
& behind incisors
 Minimal contraction
of the lips
www.indiandentalacademy.com
RETAINED INFANTILE
SWALLOW
Def: ‘As predominant persistance of the
infantile swallowing reflex after the arrival
of perm teeth’
- Rare,may be assoc with craniofacial
developmental syndromes/neural defects
C/F:
 Tongue thrust- ant & lateral
 Contraction of buccinator muscle
 Expression less face(facial muscles –used
for stabilising mandi)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Difficulty in
mastication(as
occlusion only on
last molar of
quadrant)
 Mastication-b/w
tongue tip &
palate(poor
occlusion)
 Gag threshold is low
 AFH - severe AOB
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Adaptive features to OB:
 Tooth apart swallow with T.T
 Infra eruption of incisors & alveolar
development
 Hyperactive mentalis & lips
 Mandible stabilized by facial muscles
Treatm :differentiate this with skeltal OB
- If require-orthodontic & surgery
- Poor prognosis

TONGUE IN ORTHODONTICS
“ By examining the tongue of the
patient,physicians find out the diseases of
the body & philosophers the diseases of
the mind “ – St Justin
 Examination of the tongue
 Role of tongue in malocclusion
 Tongue thrust

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Examination of the tongue
- From an orthodontic point of view
other than color,texture
 Morphologic examination (size &
shape)
 Functional examination (tongue
posture)-imp
 D/D of abnormal tongue posture

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Morphologic examination
 size & shape – subjective observation,related to
patient ,Position imp than size
 Length-long tongue can touch tip of nose(not
confirmed method)
- Microglossia-rare
- Macroglossia –scalloping on lateral borders
 Asymmetry-placing tongue out
- Functional asymmetry-change from one position to
other
- Morphological asymmetry-persists in drapped
position
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Clinical implications of asymmetry:
Tongue asymmetry is imp in
 dental arch symmetry
 dental midlines
 Maintenance of treated incisal
relationships
 Open bite etc
 Not easily corrected, as treatm involve
some compromise
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Functional examination
- imp than clinical,position imp than size
- Tongue & lips often integrated
- Examine normal tongue function w/o displacing it
or the lips
 Posture of the tongue while mandi in its
postural position
- Clinically- upright position
- Cephalometry-METRIC EVALUATION
- normal -Dorsum of the tongue touches the palate
lightly,tip rest in the lingual fossae/crevices of
mandi incisors
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Proffit –”Tongue posture is far more adapt to
cause of an openbite than tongue
thrust,becoz the tongue is always there
exerting a mild continous force”

 Tongue during mastication:
- Difficult test
- Assoc with neurological problems

Palatography
 Recording the contact areas of the tongue
with the palate & teeth during
speech/certain tongue functions
 A thin layer of contrasting imp material is
applied on tongue
 Tongue movements-speech/swallowing

eg:lisping-defect S sound,T.T
 Evaluation of the influence of functional
orthodontic appliance therapy
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Speech assessment is also desirable
from an orthodontic point of view
 In malocclusions with malposed teeth,
there can also be a malposition of the
tongue, which can impair normal speech
 An important diagnostic tool as the
clinician establishes a treatment plan
and a probable prognosis for functional
appliance therapy.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Cineflourography-tongue movements
using camera & film is made during
swallowing
Tracing-T.T is measured by drawing str line
thro labial surfaces of U/L incisors

www.indiandentalacademy.com
D/D of abnormal tongue posture
 Abnormal tongue posture is more
frequent problem than abnormal size
 Tongue posture is Related to skeletal
morphology
 In class-II
 Mandi short
 Tongue positioned
forward

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 In class-III
 Tongue lie below
the plane of
occlusion

 Retracted posture seen-10% children
 Assoc with lateral OB
 Edentulous adults/pt with bilateral loss
of several post teeth
 Due to positional sense it retract itself to
establish tactile contact laterally with
alveo mucosa for better seal during
swallowing
 Complic:unsettling of mandi denture
www.indiandentalacademy.com
The protracted tongue posture:
 Tongue b/w incisors
 Serious ,results in AOB
 Endogenous & acquired adaptive

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Endogenous protracted tongue posture:
 Retention of the infantile postural pattern
 Not unesthetic,stable incisor relationship
 Mild AOB
 Protracted tongue is adaptation to AFH
 Is Endogenous protracted tongue posture
caused OB? Or AFH/skeletal dysplasias
predispose to tongue protraction?
 Treatm:surgery relapse - poor prognosis
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Acquired adaptive protracted tongue
posture:
 Transient-adaptation to
tonsilitis/pharyngitis
 Treatm:removal of cause(tonsillectomy)
 Correctable – good prognosis

 TONGUE REFLEXES

 Most significant is posture –imp for the
maintenance of the phayrngeal airway
 Base of the tongue forms ant wall of the
pharynx
 Maintenance of phayrngeal airway cause
base of the tongue to not to intrude into
airway
 Genioglossus muscle performs this reflex
function
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Genioglossus reflex (initiated by large
tongue/tonsils/mouthbreathing)
Sustained jaw opening
Sustained tongue posture (T.T)
MALOCCLUSION
(proclination /OB/ prevent tooth
eruption-post open bite/deep
overbite)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Consequences of tongue posture
& functional abnormalities on
skeletal pattern:
 In HGP:
- Forward position/T.T-Bimax dental
protrusion(as tongue pressing on
lingual surfaces of both U/L incisors)
- Spacing(incisors), AOB
 In VGP:
- T.T- tip the upper incisors to labialy &
Lower incisors-lingually tipped
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Movements of the tongue
 Protrusion- Genioglossus (both side)
 Retraction- Styloglossus & Hyoglossus
(both side)
 Depression- Genioglossus & Hyoglossus
(both side)
 Retraction & elevation- Styloglossus &
palatoglossus (both side)
 Intrinsic muscles - Alters shape tongue
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 In the mid line,a fold of MM-frenulum
of the tongue connects the ventral
surface of the tongue to FOM
ANKYLOGLOSSIA:
 Complete ankyloglossia: fusion of
tongue & FOM
 Partial ankyloglossia / tongue tie:
Short lingual frenum /attachment of
lingual frenum too near the tip of
tongue
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Tongue tie : is most common
 Restricted tongue movements
 Speech difficulties (consonants)
 Some cases are self corrective
 Majority : surgical (frenectomy)

- prolonged thumb sucking,tonsillitis &
URTI,improper bottle feeding
3.Maturational –infantile swallow persists in
adulthood
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4.Mechanical restrictionmacroglossia,constricted dental
arches,enlarged adenoids

Diagnosis
 Extra oral-facial profile ,OB,AFH
 Examination of- tongue posture
- tongue function
 Careful differentiation should be made of
 Simple tongue thrust
 Complex tongue thrust
 Retention of infantile swallowing
pattern
 Faulty tongue posture
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Tests for diagnosis
1. swallowing: jaw drops- lips,mentalis muscle
contracts strongly-tongue thrust
2.Seperate the lips while swallowing to watch
tongue thrust,and in doing so,strong muscle
contractions can be felt
Methods of examination tongue dysfunction:
 Position & size- LATERAL CEPH
 Tongue pressure- EMG,cineradiography
palatograpic,neurolophysiologic examin
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Treatment
Simple tongue thrust: 3 phases
1.Conscious learning of the new reflex
2.Transferal of control of the new swalow
pattern to the subconscious level
3.Reinforcement of the new reflex
- If proclination is severe- correct the
habit after retraction
- Simple T.T-correct by itself during ortho
treatment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Conscious learning of the new
reflex:
 Teaching correct tongue position by
tactile signals (index finger)
 Tip of tongue & palate
 Put tongue tip-close teeth & lips-swallow
 40times/day
 With little water/food

www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Small ortho intraoral elastics-held by
tip of tongue aginst palate during
swallowing
 If correct swallow- elastic will be
retained
Incorrect swallow- elastic will be
swallowed
 2-3times /day
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Reinforcing the new swallow
subconsciously:
 To avoid abnormal
unconscious
swallow-2nd visit
 Flat sugarless fruit
drops-citric
flavoured(lemon)
 Fruit drop on Tip of
tongue-hold
against palate until
dissolves
www.indiandentalacademy.com
 Record timing
 Initialy-less
time,later more
time
 Distraction & self
competition
 Ones/day
 Timing
distraction-Best
technique
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Reinforcing the new reflex:
 Appliance therpyTongue crib
 Should not as the
1st step of
treatment
 As it traumatic to
pt/ do not wear
properly

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Tongue crib:
 Ni-cr/S.S, 3-4 projections (spurs)
 Follow the palatal contour
 Forms barrier/picket fence just
behind cingulum of mandi incisors
 Duration:depends on severity of
OB(4-9mos)
www.indiandentalacademy.com
MOA:
 Eliminate the strong T.T & plunger like
action during swallowing
 Reeducate the tongue posture -Dorsum-to
touch palate vault
Tip - palatal rugae
 Effects: as tongue confines with in
dentition-rests on occlusal surfaces of
post teeth-maintains IOD-supra eruption
& narrowing of max post teeth preventedwww.indiandentalacademy.com
NO OB
 After habit interception
 Treat malocclusion assoc with T.Twith removable / fixed ortho
appliances

 By these above 3 sequential therapy
simple T.T is correctable
 Prognosis - good

www.indiandentalacademy.com
Complex tongue thrust :
 Occlusion treatm – 1st
 Muscle exercises smilar to simple T.T
with minor modification
- Swallowing with teeth together
- Prolonged appliance therapy
 Prognosis – Poor
 More relapses
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Management of tongue thrust
Factors to be considered:
 Diagnosis –
GDP,orthodontist,pedodontist/pediatri
cians
 Majority –by Orthodontist - when
child displays dental/speech problem
1.Type of malocclusion: The common
types of malocclusion associated with
tongue thrust habits are
www.indiandentalacademy.com
a.Class I malocclusion with incr over jet.
b.Angle’s Class II division I malocclusion with
increased over jet.
c. Deep bite
d. Marked open bite.
2. Degree of malocclusion
3. Scope of the problem:
habitual,severe tongue thrusting-needs
immediate attention.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4. Maturity of the child.
5. Attitude and the degree of cooperation-from the
parents.
6. Progressive malocclusions should be considered
for immediate treatment.
7. Structural considerations to be eliminated are
a. Nasal air blockage.
b. Extremely narrow palatal arch.

 Results-tongue tip protrusion
 Slow movement of ppost part of dorsum
 Suggest – compensatory coordination of
tongue

Conclusion
 Hence position of tongue & its
function plays an important role or a
contributing factor in dental
malocclusion (T.T,macroglossia)
 Tongue thrust troubled orthodontic
treatment, discouraged orthodontists
as there is more relapses due to
continuous force by tongue
(protrusion)

 Accomplishment of successful
orthodontic treatment is pssible
through proper diagnosis & treatment

  • 12. Functions of normal tongue - Has several imp function of intrest to the orthodontist - Mastication,deglutition,speech,breathing - EQUILIBRIUM & DEVELOPMENT OF THE DENTAL OCCLUSION  Mastication : - placing food in position (ant & lateral portions of body) - Pushing food buccaly during Mastication www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 13. Deglutition: - Forming & propelling bolus in to pharynx(1st stg of swallowing) - After swallowing tongue contact hard palate while soft palate is pulled away downward against the post portion of the tongue  Speech: - Formation of sounds - s,z,t,d,sh,e,g,is - Elevation of tongue tip behind maxi incisors as in ‘s’ www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 14.  Breathing :  Nasal breathing-tongue in rest position  In forced mouth breathing-habit,exertion - Mandible is depressed,lips are opened - Tongue contacts laterally with lingual surfaces of mandi teeth dropping away from maxilla - The ant portion is lowered lies on lingual surfaces of mandi ant teeth www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 15. EQUILIBRIUM & DEVELOPMENT OF THE DENTAL OCCLUSION EQUILIBRIUM THEORY:  As applied in engg “An object subjected to unequal forces will be accelerated & there by will move to a different position in space” It follows that if any object is subjected to a set of forces but remains in the same position, those forces must be in balance or equilibrium www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 16.  From this perspective,dentition is in equilibrium as they do not move to a new location under usual circumstances (mastication,swallowin g,speaking)  ‘Tooth movement occurs only when the equilibrium against dentition is unbalanced’ www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 17. Contributors to the dental equilibrium: Various factors-effect of pressures,magnitude & its duration  Masticatory forces  Soft tissue pressures from the lips,cheeks & TONGUE  External pressures- habits & orthodontic forces  Intrinsic pressures-gingival & PDL fibers www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 18. Soft tissue pressures from the lips,cheeks & TONGUE:  Rest,swallowing,speaking  Though pressure are much lighter than masticatory but longer duration  Studies-very light forcs are succesful in moving teeth if the force is longer duration  So light sustained pressures from the lips,cheeks & TONGUE at rest are imp determinants of tooth position www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 19.  Injury to soft tissue of lipsscarring &contracture  Incisors moved lingualy as lips tightens against them- altered equilibrium www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 20.  No lip/cheeks (tropical infection)  Teeth move labially/buccaly in rsponse to unoposed pressure from the tongue www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 21.  Pressure from the tonguemacroglossia/patho /abnormal posture  labial displacement of teeth though lips & cheeks are intact-altered equilibrium www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 22.  From this equilibrium theory;light sustained pressure by the tongue against teeth has significant role in development of OB (proffit)  If a pt has a forward resting posture of the tongue the duration of the pressure even light could affect tooth position(vertical & H/Z) www.indiandentalacademy.com

  • 86. Tests for diagnosis 1. swallowing: jaw drops- lips,mentalis muscle contracts strongly-tongue thrust 2.Seperate the lips while swallowing to watch tongue thrust,and in doing so,strong muscle contractions can be felt Methods of examination tongue dysfunction:  Position & size- LATERAL CEPH  Tongue pressure- EMG,cineradiography palatograpic,neurolophysiologic examin www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 87. Treatment Simple tongue thrust: 3 phases 1.Conscious learning of the new reflex 2.Transferal of control of the new swalow pattern to the subconscious level 3.Reinforcement of the new reflex - If proclination is severe- correct the habit after retraction - Simple T.T-correct by itself during ortho treatment www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 88. Conscious learning of the new reflex:  Teaching correct tongue position by tactile signals (index finger)  Tip of tongue & palate  Put tongue tip-close teeth & lips-swallow  40times/day  With little water/food www.indiandentalacademy.com

  • 94. MOA:  Eliminate the strong T.T & plunger like action during swallowing  Reeducate the tongue posture -Dorsum-to touch palate vault Tip - palatal rugae  Effects: as tongue confines with in dentition-rests on occlusal surfaces of post teeth-maintains IOD-supra eruption & narrowing of max post teeth preventedwww.indiandentalacademy.com NO OB
