Abstract:

This presentation is focused on infant airway as it relates to tongue-tie. Participants will learn to recognize subtle, unhealthy deviations from normal, healthy breathing, including general tongue presentation and breathing patterns (especially before and after tongue-tie release). This is important for many reasons but could be helpful in contributing to optimal frenectomy outcomes and avoiding regression. Additionally, the importance of identifying at risk infants to help avoid common misdiagnosis and labelling that is more often actually struggle with breathing and sleep will be discussed, all of which ultimately optimize breastfeeding outcomes and health for the lifespan.

Learning Objectives:

1.Describe how a baby breathes directly influences growth, development and overall health.

2. Recognize sleep disordered breathing symptoms exhibited.

3. Describe some ways to begin to change the course of breathing and airway issues, including frenotomy.
