Tongue Tie & Lip Tie Treatment in Pune
Tongue and Lip Tie Release at Toothies Kids Dental Care
At Toothies Kids Dental Care, we provide gentle and effective care for children, including tongue and lip tie treatments, to ensure they thrive at every stage of development.
What Are Tongue and Lip Ties?
- A tongue tie (ankyloglossia) occurs when the band of tissue (frenulum) under the tongue is too tight or short, restricting movement.
- A lip tie happens when the upper lip’s frenulum is too thick or tight, limiting the lip’s range of motion.
These conditions can impact feeding, speech, oral hygiene, and overall development.
How Tongue and Lip Ties Affect Infants
- Breastfeeding Difficulties: Both conditions can make latching and sucking challenging, causing poor weight gain and prolonged feeding times.
- Maternal Discomfort: Nipple pain, cracking, or mastitis are common for breastfeeding mothers.
- Irritability: Feeding issues often lead to colic and fussiness.
How Tongue and Lip Ties Affect Children
- Speech Delays: Restricted tongue or lip movement can affect pronunciation and speech development.
- Oral Hygiene Problems: Difficulty clearing food particles can increase the risk of cavities and gum issues.
- Feeding Challenges: Chewing and swallowing, especially solid foods, can be problematic.
- Mouth Breathing: Improper tongue or lip resting position can lead to mouth breathing, impacting sleep quality and facial growth.
- Social Challenges: Communication difficulties may affect self-esteem and social interactions.
