It's called a frenulum.
Not to be confused with the same sort of thing on a guy's private that is also called a frenulum.
A frenulum is a small fold of tissue that prevents an organ from moving too far.

It's called a tongue frenulum. Not all are the same-some long, some short. If it is short, people are literally tongue tied.

It is called the lingual frenulum. It is what can cause you to be tongue tied if it is too short and it can be clipped.

It's called a lingual frenum or frenulum. Sometimes it has to be "clipped" in kids with speech problems.
