Tongue and Lip Ties
A tongue or lip tie can prevent your child from ‘flying’ in life!
A tongue or lip tie can negatively affect your child’s growth and development, speech and eating.
Infants with lip or tongue ties may…
- struggle to latch or take a bottle
- cause severe pain to the mom with breast feeding
- clicking or smacking noises when eating
- slow or poor weight gain
- gassy or colic
Older children with lip or tongue ties may experience…
- speech issues
- strong gag reflex
- picky eating
- grind, snore, or sleep with mouth open (sleep disordered breathing)
- narrow palate or crooked teeth
- gap between two front teeth
Lip and tongue restrictions limit your child’s life and prevent smooth flying!
We use advanced CO2 laser technology (Light Scalpel) to gently vaporize the tissue!
