Abstract

The motor and emotional development of the fetus and newborn follow paths known to science. It is constantly being updated. The presence of dysfunctions or anomalies during its development is likely to cause impairments of various orders in the motor and emotional evolution in the first 365 days of the baby’s life. One of these anomalies is ankyloglossia, a condition characterized by limited mobility of the tongue, caused by a restrictive lingual frenulum that affects various bodily functions, such as swallowing, breathing and movement, and this can cause compensations and asymmetries. Occasionally typical babies find themselves in this situation. This research aims to analyze whether there is an association between ankyloglossia and body asymmetry, also establishing a relationship with the acquisition of psychomotricity. Carrying out a prospective cross-sectional observational epidemiological study, data will be collected from typical Brazilian and Portuguese babies using maternity wards in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo, Brazil, and Braga, Portugal, during the year 2025. The instruments of this project will be the tongue test, the Bayley assessment scale, medical records and static image analysis in the first days of life under the following hypothesis: ankyloglossia may influence body posture and cause asymmetries and these may have an impact on neuro psychomotor development in the first 365 days of the baby’s life. As a result, it is expected to find material support on the subject, confirming motor changes such as asymmetries, delays in global motor development and emotional dysfunctions in the mother-baby binomial such as weak bonds and maternal guilt caused by ankyloglossia, impacting on neuro psychomotor development in the first year of baby’s life.
