Lip & Tongue Ties: 3 Things They Can Affect
Lip and tongue ties can impact more than you might expect. If untreated, they may affect:
👶 1. Feeding
Difficulty latching, prolonged feeds, clicking sounds, or poor weight gain.
😴 2. Comfort & Sleep
Excessive gas, reflux-like symptoms, or fussiness during and after feeds.
🗣️ 3. Oral Development & Speech
Restricted movement can affect oral motor development and, in some cases, speech as children grow.
