Tongue Tie and Oral Dysfunction

Unlock Your Baby's Comfort and Joy

Helping your little one thrive with expert care and support.

Hi there, new parents! Navigating the world of parenting can be a rollercoaster, right? Especially when you’re faced with challenges like tongue tie or oral dysfunction in your little one. That’s where I come in. As a Tongue Tie Specialist, I’ve created a service to make this journey a bit smoother for you and your baby. 

Imagine this: you’re holding your precious bundle, and feeding time becomes a struggle. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Well, you’re not alone. Many parents experience this, and it’s why I offer a holistic 90-minute Initial Consultation. This service is all about understanding and addressing those pesky struggles, whether it’s caused by oral restrictions or challenges with positioning and attachment that can make feeding difficult. I’ll assess what the underlying problem is, carry out treatment like gentle exercises, and show you  techniques that will help you and your baby.   I can assess for a tongue tie or uncover if something else is going on. If your baby does have a tongue tie, NO tongue tie division will be carried out in this appointment. The initial consultation looks at solving the underlying cause of your challenges – and a tongue tie division is not always the answer. If a tongue tie division is needed, I can  provide you with all the prep and post-procedure support you need. 


I’ve seen firsthand how addressing these issues can transform feeding times from a stressful ordeal into a peaceful bonding experience. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t want that? Plus, if you’re within a 10-mile radius, I’ll even come to your home for the consultation—no extra charge! So, if you’re ready to tackle those oral restrictions head-on and give your baby the best start possible, I’m here to help. Let’s get started on this journey together!

1. Imagine your baby's smile without restrictions! Our 90-minute consultation is your first step towards freedom, providing personalised care and support that fgives you answers and solutions.

2. Why settle for less when your baby deserves the best? Our comprehensive service offers a clear path to optimal oral health, with home visits and a personal touch that sets us apart.

3. I’m not just a specialist; I’m your partner in this journey. With an in-depth holistic consultation and resources to support you going forward, I’m here to ensure your baby's oral health is in the best hands.

4. Let us help you turn those feeding struggles into joyful moments! Our unique approach combines expert assessment with heartfelt support, right from the comfort of your home.

5. Think of us as your baby's oral health champions! Our service isn't just about assessments; it's about empowering you with the knowledge and support you need for your baby's bright future.

Even generalised developmental delays can be due to restricted tongue function. I here to let you know, you’re not alone! Many parents face challenges when their little ones struggle with tongue tie or oral dysfunction. That’s where I come in. As a Tongue Tie and Oral Dysfunction Specialist, my 90-minute Initial Consultation is designed to assess and address these issues, ensuring your baby gets the best start possible. Think of it as a guided journey to uncover and resolve the mysteries of oral restrictions, with me as your trusty navigator!

 

Imagine having a roadmap to help your baby overcome these hurdles. During our consultation, we’ll explore whether a frenulotomy is needed and how we can best prepare and support your baby through it. And don’t worry, I’m here to support you every step of the way, from initial assessment to post-procedure care. If your baby does need a tongue tie division, I will support you to prepare for this, recommend where to have the division completed, and support you with post division support, as a snip isn’t enough on it’s own.

Plus, I  offer group sessions to connect with other parents on the same journey. It’s all about creating a community where you and your baby can thrive!

FAQs

What exactly is a tongue tie, and how can it affect my baby?

A tongue tie is when the lingual frenulum under the tongue is structurally too short or tight and affects tongue function. It restricts movement, making feeding and even breathing a bit tricky. But don’t worry, we’re here to help untangle those issues!

Great question! During our initial consultation, we’ll assess your baby’s oral function. If we find that a frenulotomy can help, we’ll guide you through the process. It’s all about ensuring your little one can eat, sleep, and thrive comfortably. But it isn’t always necessary.

Think of it as a friendly chat with a purpose. We’ll discuss your baby’s feeding habits, check their oral function, and explore any concerns you might have. By the end, you’ll have a clear plan for the next steps. Plus, it’s a chance for us to get to know each other better!

Absolutely! We’re not just going to wave goodbye after the procedure. We offer post-procedure support to ensure your baby is healing well and adapting beautifully. It’s like having a trusty guide by your side every step of the way.

Yes, we can! We know how challenging it can be to travel with a newborn, so we’re happy to visit you if you’re within a 10-mile radius. It’s all part of making this journey as smooth and stress-free as possible.

You’re never alone in this! We offer follow-up consultations and even group sessions where you can connect with other parents. It’s a supportive community where you can share experiences and learn together. We’re here for you, every step of the way!
