Tongue-tie Release

Tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) is a condition where a short or tight band of tissue under the tongue restricts its movement, affecting breastfeeding, speech, and oral development in infants and children. Paediatric tongue-tie release is a safe, quick procedure to cut or loosen this tissue, restoring normal tongue movement. The procedure can be performed with minimal discomfort, often without the need for general anesthesia in newborns, and helps improve feeding, speech, and oral hygiene.

  • Performed to release a tight frenulum under the tongue.
  • Improves breastfeeding and reduces feeding difficulties in infants.
  • Helps correct speech and tongue movement issues in older children.
  • Quick and minimally invasive, often done in-office or under local anesthesia.
  • Safe procedure with minimal complications and rapid recovery.
