k im i teen and my tounge is tied. its not severe and i can speak perfectly fine but i cannot roll my r's or stick my tounge out. if i get this fixed, will i be able to resume speaking normally immidiatly? as i said i am a teen and i DONT want to end up with a speech deficiancy or lisp even if it only lasts a month. i no that i would had to train myself to roll my r's (most likely) but other than that, would i be able to continue to talk normal??? i also have the high hopes of becomeing a vocalist or singer so my speech is very important. as i said i can speak normal now but am just curious.

KAT,
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE "TONGUE TIED" DOESN'T MEAN YOU CANNOT BE A GOOD VOCALIST. THERE ARE NO SOUNDS IN COMMON SPEECH THAT REQUIRE YOU TO STICK YOUR TONGUE AWAY FROM THE MOUTH..
A LINGUAL FRENECTOMY IS A VERY EASY PROCEDURE AND HEALS W/O ANY DIFFICULTY.
SPEAKING WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY THIS NEITHER WILL SINGING.

I would say ask you doctor, this sounds too important to leave it to the flippant answers you receive on this venue.
Good Luck, Dear

My advice to you is:
Start drinking heavily.
