I have never noticed it before. Does anyone know what that is. I have had some speach problems, and now I see these dents on the side of my tongue...about 3 on each side of the front section of my tongue. Someone please let me know if they know what this could be?

bama, hi! Sorry about your issues. Have you been to a doc yet, since you are having speech problems? Good luck!

I started having speech problems about a year ago. Just having difficulty getting my words out...sometimes it sounds like I have been drinking. I had all of the tests done...MRI's, EMG, checked my gait, muscle strength, and everything was normal. I have noticed in the last month or 2 that my speech is a bit worse. I looked in the mirror today, and noticed the dents in the side of my tongue, and freaked out. Is there anyone out there who has similar symptoms?
