Medial

The medial region is the part located between the main areas of the tongue. It is the most sensitive and gentle. In case of trauma, the patient experiences significant discomfort. Therefore, dentists consider the medial area to be the most vulnerable.

Injury to these tissues can be either a consequence of malocclusion or a consequence of changes in occlusion for other reasons. Also, the medial part of the tongue is involved in pronouncing the sounds “ch” and “sch”.
