Not Your Average Frenectomy

A Frenectomy Can Change Everything

A frenectomy (tongue tie release) is a quick procedure that can make a huge difference in your child’s life. It can support better feeding, speech, sleep, breathing, and healthy jaw and airway development.

Yes - a frenectomy can be life-changing. But it’s not magic. And it’s not a shortcut.

What Parents Need to Know

A true transformation takes more than a simple “snip.” Here's what makes our approach different:

• It’s not a quick fix. The real magic is in retraining function and habits after the release.

• Aftercare matters. Wounds naturally tighten as they heal - which is the opposite of what we want.

• A small clip isn’t enough. We need the whole tongue to lift and move well - not just the tip.

• The tongue affects the whole body. One release won’t fix full-body tension or dysfunction.

• Breastfeeding may still be hard. There are many reasons feeding can be a struggle - this is just one piece.

• Just because it’s fast doesn’t mean it’s easy. And having “Dr.” in front of a name doesn’t mean they’re trained in ties.

What’s Failing Families Right Now

Too many children are suffering because well-meaning providers don’t understand tongue ties. It shows up when:

• Parents’ concerns are dismissed

• Quality of life isn’t being considered

• No one says, “I’m not sure - let me help you find someone who knows more”

• The tongue’s actual movement and function aren’t assessed

• Referrals to therapy are skipped

• Releases are incomplete or poorly done

• Aftercare isn’t explained

• No one checks to make sure things are improving

So Who Does Help the Tongue?

Hearts have cardiologists. Feet have podiatrists. Eyes have ophthalmologists.

But tongues? Tongues need providers who truly understand function - and parents who keep asking the right questions.

If you’re reading this, you probably already know something’s been missed. You’ve done the research. You’ve lived the stress. You’ve seen the symptoms.

What You Can Do

Tell your friends, your family, your coworkers:

• Trust your instincts

• Breastfeeding issues need an IBCLC

• Feeding issues need a trained therapist

• Speech issues need a real evaluation

• It’s worth the time, money, and energy to help your child thrive
