👉 Microglossia is a term used to describe the condition of having an uneven or irregular appearance of the tongue, which can affect speech and swallowing. It typically occurs due to a lack of sufficient blood flow to the soft palate and floor, leading to a decrease in the thickness and length of the soft palate, as well as reducing the flexibility of the tongue. This condition is often associated with other underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or certain types of lung disease.
