👉 Pantoglossal is a term used in the field of medicine to describe an individual with a condition that involves the movement of their tongue, which can be described as a "pant," or "butterfly," and the muscles involved. This condition is typically associated with difficulty speaking, swallowing, and breathing due to the frequent use of the tongue during speech. Pantoglossal disorders are often caused by underlying conditions such as sleep apnea, obesity, or certain genetic abnormalities.
