Addressing infant tongue tie early can significantly improve feeding and overall oral development. The laser frenectomy is a safe and minimally invasive treatment for infants with tongue tie or lip tie issues.
Benefits of our Treatment
Immediate & Lasting Functional Improvement
Releasing the restrictive tissue can help improve the infant’s ability to breastfeed, swallow, and their overall oral development. It may also help prevent future speech development issues.
Comfort & Relief
This treatment is performed with a highly precise, specialized laser, which makes it a gentle and minimally invasive procedure that is over quickly. The non-contact laser reduces bleeding and swelling, so the baby can feed comfortably soon after.
