Tongue Tie & Breastfeeding Services
Tongue Tie is where the skin (frenulum) joining a babies tongue to the bottom of their mouth is shorter or thicker than usual. This can make it harder to breastfeed, and as children age with a tongue tie, it can create lots of challenges with oral health and activity.
The Surgical process to remove a tongue tie (frenectomy) is a straight forward procedure and can be completed during a 20 minute outpatient appointment, with our experienced maxillofacial surgeon. Following which you will be supported during a 30 minute 1-1 breastfeeding consultation with our experienced specialist midwife.
