Accordingly, this ethical and psychological collision should be taken into account by doctors when implementing the practice of informed voluntary consent, and healthcare organizers should better conduct public events on topical medical problems of both federal and, especially, regional nature (with the participation of people representing the most various, up to diametrically opposed points of view on the problem under discussion).</p>informed voluntary consent, ethical and psychological conflict, surgical treatment of ankyloglossia, questioning of parentsинформированное добровольное согласие, этико-психологическая коллизия, оперативное лечение анкилоглоссии, анкетирование родителей
