Tongue tie is more common than most parents think โ and many babies and toddlers have it without anyone realizing it. It happens when the tissue connecting the tongue to the floor of the mouth is too short or tight, limiting how the tongue moves.
Signs to watch for in babies and toddlers:
๐ถ Difficulty breastfeeding or bottle feeding
๐ถ Clicking sounds while feeding
๐ถ Poor weight gain
๐ง Speech difficulties as they grow
๐ง Trouble licking, or feeling like their tongue "gets stuck"
๐๐ก๐ ๐ ๐จ๐จ๐ ๐ง๐๐ฐ๐ฌ? A simple procedure called a Frenectomy โ or Lingual Frenectomy โ can correct it. And the sooner it's identified, the better the outcome for your little one.
