Believe it or not, frenectomies actually have a lengthy and storied history, with references to similar procedures being performed in Ancient Egypt and Greece! And in Western medicine, early iterations of the procedure were used in the 1800s to treat a variety of conditions related to tongue-tie, including difficulty with breastfeeding, speech, and oral hygiene.

Needless to say, modern medicine has come quite a long way, and the frenectomies that are performed these days are much more practical and effective. Here at Philadelphia Tongue and Lip-Tie Center, you can trust that Dr. Singh and our team only use the latest and gentlest methods to perform frenectomies and ensure positive, life-changing results.

There are several myths floating around about tongue and lip ties, and we're here to debunk one of the most common ones out there.

Some people have heard that a tongue tie will stretch itself out over time, and that if their child has one, they'll likely outgrow it. But this isn't true! The thick webbing of fascia composing the tongue tie actually stretches less than 1%, meaning that if it remains untreated, it will certainly persist until adulthood.

If you suspect your child has a tongue or lip tie, often indicated by difficulty breastfeeding or impaired speech development, give our Southampton office a call to set up a consultation. We're ready to help!

Lip and tongue ties can cause all sorts of complications for children, but few are as dire as the impact on breastfeeding. These conditions can cause difficulties in latching, prolonged feeding times, crying during feeding, and poor weight gain, among other problems.

What’s worse is that these issues can also affect parents by proxy – but you or your little one shouldn't have to live with these sorts of frustrations or disadvantages. If you suspect your baby has a lip or tongue tie, give us a call – Dr. Singh is more than happy to speak with you and begin helping!

It’s just another reason why this treatment is considered incredibly convenient – in addition to being remarkably life-changing! To learn more about frenectomies or to schedule a visit for your little one, feel free to contact our office for additional information or assistance!

It’s always delightful to hear our children talk more and more as they grow older – but unfortunately, tongue and lip ties can affect speech development if left unaddressed. Particularly, children with these conditions often struggle to make sounds such as “t,” “d,” “z,” “s,” “th,” “l,” and more. Needless to say, this can make socializing and verbalizing difficult during crucial, formative years!

This is just another reason why these issues shouldn’t be ignored; helping your child to speak clearly and confidently will benefit them throughout their entire life!

Wondering about the difference between a tongue tie and a lip tie? Let's take a closer look - understanding these distinctions is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment!

Tongue ties involve the tissue underneath the tongue impacting tongue movement, while lip ties involve the tissue connecting the upper lip to the gums. Though slightly different, they can both cause similar issues such as the inability to correctly latch during breastfeeding, as well as impaired speech development.

If you suspect your little one might have a tongue or lip tie, allow Dr. Singh and our team to help!
