AAB 451 Breastfeeding Bites -Tongue Tie series oral facial structures - The Palate

The palate is located in the roof of the mouth.  It separates the oral and nasal cavities and provides stability to the facial structures. When you touch the roof of your mouth with the tip of your tongue you will be hitting the hard palate.  In breastfeeding, the hard palate's function is to assist with the positioning and stability of the nipple when drawn into the mouth.
