Tongue-Tie

 

Tongue-tie, or ankyloglossia, can be challenging as it can cause difficulty in breastfeeding your child. It is a condition where the tongue is attached to the floor of your baby’s mouth with a thin strip of tissue, preventing it from moving freely. While in some cases, a baby can outgrow this condition on its own, at other times, a tongue-tie can be significantly difficult. That is where we come to help you out! We can assess and correct the issue through our special procedure of lingual frenectomy, which can help release the tongue. Don’t hesitate to call us for evaluation if you think your baby is facing similar issues.
