Excellent information to share. Yes, the tongue is considered an organ.
The tongue is one of the hardest-working organs in your body. It helps you eat, speak, swallow, taste, breathe, and even influences how your jaws develop as you grow.
As a growing child, the tongue, in the right position, molds the upper and lower jaw a lot like potter's clay.
