Hi there, I'm a dental hygienist from Texas!.!.!.
The part you are describing is called a "Frenum"!. It is nothing more than an attachment tissue!.!.!.
In addition to having one under the top lip, you also have one (a very small one) under your bottom lip!. Sometimes they surgically remove the frenums from the lips if they cause problems (such as creating spaces between the teeth if they are very large)!. This is called a frenectomy!. (But never done under the tongue)
Guess its just the way God made us! =)
Hope this helps your curiosity!Www@Answer-Health@Com
