[0029] The above working principle: when cutting the tongue tie of a newborn, the fixing ring 1 can be first put around the mouth of the newborn, and the main Velcro 6, the auxiliary Velcro 7 and the two fixing belts 5 are cooperated to stably fix the fixing ring 1 on the face of the newborn. Then, the medical staff can open the patient's mouth by hand, pass the oral support ring 4 through the reserved groove 2 and extend it into the patient's mouth to support the patient's mouth, and through the set fixing component, the connection effect of the oral support ring 4 and the fixing ring 1 can be guaranteed, and the supporting effect and stability of the oral support ring 4 on the patient's mouth can be guaranteed. Then the support member 8 can be pushed forward to support the patient. The tongue of the newborn is supported and the frenulum is exposed, which makes it convenient for medical staff to cut the frenulum through the cutting pliers 26. The positioning component can ensure the position of the support member 8 after the support member 8 completes the support of the patient's tongue, so that the medical staff does not need to bother to control the support member 8 when performing the cutting operation, which is convenient for the medical staff to cut. At the same time, due to the stable support of the oral cavity and tongue of the newborn by the oral support ring 4 and the support member 8, it will not slip out of the oral cavity easily, thereby preventing the tongue of the infant from rotating or closing, making it difficult to cooperate with the cutting, reducing the difficulty of cutting the frenulum and reducing the risk during cutting.

[0030] In order to ensure the supporting effect of the support member 8 on the tongue of the newborn, the support member 8 is composed of an operating part 9, a bending part 10, a pressing part 11 and a supporting part 12.
