When Is Tongue Tie Surgery Necessary for Kids?

Tongue tie is a condition that occurs when the tissue connecting the tongue to the floor of the mouth is too short or thick, thereby restricting the tongue’s movements. It is a fairly common birth deformity that afflicts countless children every year. Fortunately, it is easily correctable via a minimally invasive surgery known as a frenectomy. Still, you might hesitate to consent to any type of surgery for your precious little one. You may rightly want to know if the procedure is truly necessary! This blog post explains how you can determine whether or not your child needs tongue tie surgery.
