10. Treatment Options for Tongue Tie: with Dr Marjan Jones

Make sure you listen to Episode 9 BEFORE this episode. Today in episode 10, we are discussing the possible solutions to tongue tie. There is the choice to do nothing, and occasionally when a tongue tie is not having a functional impact on the patient, this is an option. Today we also discuss frenectomy, frenotomy, and the different types of surgical procedures that can be performed on tongue ties, and whether anaesthetic is required. We discuss the impact of surgery, and the pros and cons. We discuss orofacial myology, and the impact of this important therapy to prepare and rehabilitate tongue before and after surgery. We let you know how to find out your own information on tongue tie (even though this is really tricky), and Dr Jones gives her personal advice to those with children who have tongue-tie.
