At Wellspring Pediatric Plastics, we understand that every little smile is precious and deserving of the utmost care. That’s why we’re here to shed light on a simple yet significant procedure that can make a world of difference for your little one: frenulectomies.
Frenulectomies, often referred to as tongue-tie or lip-tie releases, are quick, in-office procedures that address restrictive bands of tissue (frenula) under the tongue or upper lip. While these may seem like minor issues, they can have a significant impact on breastfeeding and even speech development later in life.
For breastfeeding mothers, a tight or restrictive frenulum can hinder the baby’s ability to latch properly, leading to feeding difficulties, frustration, and potential complications such as low milk supply or nipple pain. By performing a frenulectomy, we can release these restrictions, allowing for improved latch and more effective breastfeeding sessions. This not only promotes better nutrition for your baby but also enhances the bonding experience between parent and child.
If you have any concerns about your child’s feeding, we encourage you to reach out to us for a consultation. Together, we can determine if a frenulectomy is the right course of action for your child and take proactive steps to support their health and development.
At Wellspring Pediatric Plastics, we’re committed to nurturing every little smile and ensuring that your child thrives. Thank you for entrusting us with your precious ones’ care.

Infant ear deformity, which affects a significant number of babies worldwide, can be remedied with two separate modalities.
While surgical correction is an option, it comes with risks and potential complications. Thankfully, Wellspring Pediatric Plastics offers a less invasive alternative: infant ear molding.
Not only is it effective, but it’s also a safer and less risky option than delayed surgical treatment. Let’s explore why more and more parents are turning to ear molding as the preferred method for treating their little ones!
Dr. Langevin explains how hormones play a huge part in the success of infant ear molding!
Did you know that estrogen, passed from mother to baby, is what allows the ears to be malleable after birth?
This hormone begins to decline shortly after birth, so early intervention is key!
At Wellspring Pediatric Plastics, our providers are specialty-trained and perform a significant amount of frenulectomies both in the hospital and clinic setting. We love supporting breastfeeding mothers and are privileged to take care of your child.
Tongue massage exercises are recommended for a small period of time. These exercises maintain release results by ensuring that the frenulum is not able to grow or reconnect to its original position.
Please contact our office if you believe your child may benefit from this service!
