Infant Frenectomy Foundations for a YSGG Laser Dentist
Recognize the red flags, provide effective diagnosis and consider all aspects of treatment for successful outcome.
Feeding troubles are seen when infants have difficulty using their mouth well because of restrictive tethers such as lip tie, tongue tie and/or buccal ties. As a water laser dentist, we can provide a “life changing” treatment known as Laser Frenectomy. With effective diagnosis and treatment, it can greatly improve the feeding experience for the mom and baby dyad as well as have a lifelong impact! In this webinar, I will share the 3 main red flags of lip and tongue ties in infants along with keys to effective evaluation and diagnosis. We will also discuss the 4 major considerations for treatment – optimal timing, collaborative approach, skilled and complete release or restrictions and effective aftercare. I will also share case studies to demonstrate how to get successful outcomes for simple to complex cases!
