Normal standards do not exist. The term aglossia is often used for extremely small tongue, but a nubbin of tongue tissue is almost always present and aglossia in sensu strictu is extremely rare. This is an acknowledged bundled term, but due to its frequent usage and relative paucity of situations that would call for separate individual assessments of tongue dimensions, the bundled term is retained. Decreased length and width of the tongue. |
