Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Background: Congenital oral synechiae are rare developmental anomalies characterized by abnormal fibrous bands connecting oral structures, most commonly between the tongue and floor of the mouth or between the buccal mucosa and alveolar ridges. These malformations can significantly impact speech, mastication, and oral hygiene. Case Presentation: We report a case of a 32-year-old female presenting with congenital oral synechiae causing functional limitations in speech articulation and oral hygiene maintenance. The patient underwent surgical correction with favorable outcomes. Conclusion: Early recognition and appropriate surgical management of congenital oral synechiae can significantly improve patient quality of life and prevent secondary complications.
