Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to systematize contemporary scientific knowledge regarding tongue-tie diagnosis problems. The authors made a broad review of the literature, trying to find answers to questions that concern speech therapy practitioners in their everyday work. Case studies and publications with a low level of scientific evidence were excluded from the review. The analysis of the literature showed how many extremely important questions remain unanswered and how little reliable information can be used to follow evidence-based practice.
