Tongue tie release without therapy: why function does not always follow

A release changes tissue. It does not automatically teach a tongue to rest on the palate, swallow without thrusting, or make a clean /s/.

Families come to us after a laser visit with the same lisp, the same open-mouth posture, and a scar that is already tightening. Pre-op activation and post-op myofunctional work are how a frenectomy becomes a functional change.

If you are scheduled for a frenectomy or frenuloplasty anywhere along the Wasatch Front, ask who is doing the therapy, not only who is holding the laser.
