Not all lasers are created equal. When it comes to tongue-tie and lip-tie releases, the tool being used matters. I’ve been using the LightScalpel CO₂ laser for about 8 years, and I love how precise and gentle it allows me to be, especially with infants. Because it creates very little heat, we can often perform infant releases without sedation, with minimal bleeding and inflammation, and a smoother recovery. If you’re considering a tongue-tie release for your child, don’t be afraid to ask your provider: What type of laser do you use? “Laser” doesn’t tell you enough. Knowing the technology matters. 🩷 tongue tie in babies | tongue tie laser for infants | pediatric tongue tie treatment | oral ties | pediatric airway dentist #TongueTie #TongueTieRelease #PediatricDentist #PediatricAirwayDentistry #InfantFeeding
