“…Epidemiological studies have shown high frequency of tongue diseases among mucosal lesions of the oral cavity with variable prevalence in different parts of the world (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). Such variations are due to the differences in ethnic groups, sex and age of the studied samples and the use of different diagnostic criteria, methodology and procedures (9).…”

This is the first ever-detailed study of tongue diseases in Libyan population, where the tongue conditions found in 320 patients (9.2%) of 3,460 consecutive patients screened in the department of Oral Medicine and Oral Diagnosis at faculty of dentistry, Benghazi Libya. Both sexes were affected almost equally and only 25 patients were aware of their tongue disease. Forty patients had one or more systemic illness, 34 of them was on regular medications. Fissured tongue was the most prevalent condition, as it has been found in 155(48.4%) patients, depapillated tongue in 82(25.6%) patients and geographic tongue in 55(17.2%) patients, other disease conditions were found in a lesser number of patients. Fifty-four patients had painful tongue conditions; other complaints included malodor, speech interferences or swallowing difficulties. Most conditions were confined to the tongue and in more than 90%, there had been involvement of the dorsum of the tongue. Fortunately, most tongue conditions can easily be diagnosed on clinical grounds by any experienced clinician, hence, the histopathological examination and other investigations are needed in only few cases. There is a wide variation in the prevalence of most of tongue diseases worldwide due to the lack of uniformity in criteria of the studies. Thus, more studies are needed in this regard.

“…5 Ankyloglossia is usually defined based on the inability to extend the tip of the tongue beyond the vermillion border of the lips or a line joining the lip commissures, along with speech impairement. 6 It is classified based on "free tongue". Free tongue is defined as the length from the insertion of the lingual frenum into the base of the tongue to the tip of the tongue.…”

“…In the general population the prevalence of talon cusp is estimated to be 2.5%, affecting mostly the upper permanent lateral incisors [Mavrodisz et al, 2003], even 0.6 per 1,000 in a population of Mexican children [Sedano et al, 1989]. Talon cusps have been described in association with dens invaginatus [de Sousa et al, 1999;Lorena et al, 2003], in Ellis-van Creveld syndrome [Hattab et al, 1998], and in Temtamy preaxial brachydactyly syndrome [Temtamy et al, 1998].…”

Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome (RTS; OMIM # 180849) is a well‐known disorder characterized by mental and growth retardation, broad thumbs and great toes, and unusual facial characteristics. We studied oro‐dental findings in a group of RTS patients: 12 from the UK, 2 from Greece, and 26 from France. All were examined by two investigators, using the Diagnosing Dental Defects Database record form to document these. Various oro‐dental features were found: small mouth, retrognathia, micrognathia, highly arched and narrow palate, talon cusps, expressed crowding, screwdriver incisors, cross bites, and enamel hypoplasia. Eruption was usually normal. Specific attention for these anomalies should facilitate diagnosis and help adequate management. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
