Clinical Lactation, 2017
If a tongue-tie is to be revised, what is the best technique for accomplishing that? There is some debate in the field about whether scissors or laser is most effective. Both techniques seem efficacious. This section also addresses which professionals should be performing the revision. Our panelists represent a wide range of disciplines, so some refer,

Frenotomy for Tongue-Tie in Neonates
2023Tongue-tie, or ankyloglossia, refers to a condition in which the frenulum of the tongue is so shortened that it prevents the tongue executing its normal range of movement. There is uncertainty about the exact frequency with which ankyloglossia occurs, with estimates ranging from below one in a hundred to one in ten infants.
