Tongue-Tie Surgery In Kukatpally

Tongue Tie Surgery Specialist in Kukatpally, Hyderabad

Tongue-tie is also called ankyloglossia — is a condition in which an individual’s tongue remains attached to the floor of their mouth. This happens when the lingual frenulum (a thin strip of tissue interfacing your tongue and the floor of your mouth) is more limited than usual. A short frenulum can limit your tongue’s movement. It is more common in new-borns and young kids but even adults have it.

What are the causes of tongue-tie?

There are two primary causes of tongue-tie; either the frenum is excessively short and tight, or it didn’t move back down the tongue during development and is as yet connected to the tongue tip.

Many adults and kids won’t have issues regardless of having a short, tight lingual frenum.

What are the signs of tongue-tie?

The indications of tongue-tie can include:

The tongue cannot poke out beyond the lips.
The tongue tip cannot touch the roof of the mouth.
The tongue cannot move sideways to the edges of the mouth.
The tongue tip may appear flat or square instead of pointy when extended.
The tongue tip may appear indented or heart-shaped.
The lower front teeth may have a gap between them.

Signs that a child could be tongue-tied include:

The mother experiences painful nipples during and after breastfeeding.
The mother notices flattened nipples after breastfeeding.
The mother sees a white compression mark on the nipple after breastfeeding.
The baby has low weight gain or does not feed well.

The mother might notice that the baby:

Comes on and off the breast.
Gets tired quickly during feeds.
Makes a clicking sound while sucking.

Treatment for tongue-tie

Tongue-tie can resolve naturally in early childhood if the frenum loosens on its own, allowing the tongue to move freely for eating and speaking.
Seek help from a certified lactation specialist or another qualified healthcare professional to address baby feeding difficulties.
Surgical treatment by ENT surgeon in Madinaguda, Dr. Gouda Ramesh, may be considered if tongue-tie is diagnosed by a trained doctor and other strategies have not been successful.
Surgical treatment often involves snipping the frenum with surgical scissors or using a laser. The medical term for this procedure is a frenectomy.

If you are experiencing issues with breastfeeding or think your child has a tongue-tie, contact your doctor or lactation expert. They will actually carry out an assessment and refer you for treatment.

What happens if the tongue-tie is not treated?

Left untreated, moderate to severe cases of tongue-tie can cause problems including:

Feeding difficulties, which may lead to poor weight gain or malnourishment. (Breastfeeding is often more challenging than bottle feeding when a baby has tongue-tie.)
Speech difficulties, which may lead to challenges in school.
Difficulty eating certain types of foods.

Can I prevent tongue-tie?

Since people are born with tongue-tie, there’s no way to prevent it. For more severe cases of tongue-tie, early diagnosis and treatment are key to a successful recovery.
