In this encore episode, Lisa discusses the controversy of timing of tongue tie release, including hospital identification of tongue ties and the possible downsides of early treatment without a complete functional assessment. She discusses why her practice has evolved from recommending immediate release, to a slower approach, utilizing a holistic, team view, and how this is leading to better experiences and outcomes. This raises the question - What is a successful outcome of tongue tie treatment? Is it release of frenum or is it successful breastfeeding?
