Tongue tie release & Lip tie release

Free The Ties, Let Baby Thrive, Better Feeding, Smiles Come Alive

What Is a Tongue Tie?
A Tongue Tie In Infants Happens When: The tissue under the tongue is too short or tight. This limits tongue movement and resting position.

 

What Is a Lip Tie?
A lip tie in infants happens when:
The tissue behind the upper lip (labial frenulum) is too tight or thick. This restricts the upper lip’s movement, making it hard to lift or flare naturally
 
What Causes Tongue and Lip Ties?
Tongue and lip ties are congenital, meaning they’re present at birth. While the exact cause isn’t always known, they may be linked to genetic or developmental factors during pregnancy. It’s not caused by feeding practices or parenting choices.

What is a Laser frenectomy?

A laser frenectomy (tongue tie release) is a precise, evidence-based procedure used to release restrictive oral tissues commonly known as tongue ties (ankyloglossia) or lip ties.

What Sets a Laser Frenectomy Apart?

It is a commitment to restore full mobility and integrate the release into the infant’s overall oral and airway development. At The Brite Bite Clinic, we perform this release with a focus on both anatomical correction and functional outcomes.

We collaborate closely with lactation consultants, pediatricians, and bodywork therapists to ensure a supportive, multidisciplinary approach.

 

How is it Carried Out?

The Procedure is Safe, quick, and performed with precision tools (Diode laser) under local anesthesia and age-appropriate settings.

We guide parents through pre-procedure stretches and post-procedure care to encourage optimal healing and long-term benefits.
