    I’ve also read that tongue tie can affect you as an adult or affect you with headaches back aches and low appetite for certain textures. Have you heard of this?

    Would you recommend doing the procedure again if after it was snip and baby Is feeding well still has a heart shape on the tip?

    It really boils down to how it looks, and what else may be going on. It is difficult, however, to make a strong case to do a procedure when the baby is feeding well.

    What if the tongue can not be in the correct position that's against the roof of the upper jaw because he is tongue tied

    Whether or not the tongue can reach is only partially related to the frenulum. It also depends on the rest of the tongue, mouth, palate anatomy. And also the muscle tone and flexibility or stretchiness of the tongue muscles themselves. It's about how everything fits together structurally, and how everything moves dynamically. There is no simple, blanket statement that can be made.

    I disagree about no pain relief.. our 2 day old and 4 year old who both got lasered both showed extreme discomfort the first few days.

    The blur transition after each cut scene is very tough on the eyes.
