Infant & Child Laser Frenectomy
Whether you are struggling with an infant who is experiencing feeding issues, slow weight gain , reflux and/or colic symptoms or an older child with sleep concerns like snoring or grinding their teeth, speech impediments or a picky eater, having a Functional Assessment early in life to screen for tethered oral tissues (tongue tie) can be life changing and prevent many bad habits associated with oral restrictions from forming. As an IBCLC & Orofacial Myologist , Sherrie has the experience and expertise to develop an indivualized care plan specific to your child’s needs.
Maybe your infant already had a release with another provider and is still struggling or no aftercare instructions were given. They may benefit from Oral Habilitation, contact Sherrie at info@sherriepruitt.com to see if this therapy could be beneficial to your little one.
Preparation is key, both mentally and physically and is just as important as the after care . This is never one size fits all, Sherrie ensures pre and post operative care is tailored to fit each child’s individual needs. For some, more extensive therapy is required, inquire with Sherrie for pricing and scheduling of these therapies
Sherrie‘s mission is to provide your family with the highest level of care, your child is more than a number at Tennessee Tongue-Tie Center™️.
