Tongue twisting

Hello,
My beardie is a little over a year old and I will drip water on his snout to keep him hydrated. He licks it off and will lick the dropper so I do this until he stops going for more. But he does this weird thing where he starts twisting his tongue and opening his mouth a lot is that normal??

I got someone else looking at it but I think it's normal seems like mine do it too but we can check for sure- I don't want to give you a different answer if something is going on
Ok so they got back w/ me and this is what she said

O.K. I saw the video, that is normal . Sometimes they have the sensation that there's food in their mouth or something, nothing wrong with him though.

perfectly normal - your dragon is mopping up any excess water that is running down their jawline

Sadie,
Thank you so much for going the extra mile for me for an answer. I really appreciate you asking your friend looking at it as well!
