While some children with tongue-ties don’t experience problems or it even loosens as they get older, a tongue-tie can often lead to future problems if ignored. Not being able to nurse properly can cause malnutrition. As they get older, your child may experience speech problems too.
The reasons for tongue-ties are relatively unknown, although genetics play a role. While it’s most common for infants and young children, it’s been seen in teens and older adults too. Not everyone has issues with a tongue-tie, though, so it may have gone unnoticed.
A frenectomy using laser technology is generally a low-pain procedure. Your child may feel some mild discomfort during and shortly after the treatment, but this is usually minimal. Most children recover quickly and can return to their normal activities soon after the procedure.
