In this brief educational monologue, Dr. Katie To explains that what is often described as a "big tongue" in children is usually a result of a small oral cavity. She points out anatomical signs such as a narrow jaw and a long soft palate that make the tongue appear oversized. Emphasizing the urgency of early treatment, she advises that intervention should begin as soon as these features are identified to support proper airway and oral development.
