The field of tongue-tie treatment is rapidly changing, and great strides have been made over the years to create sequencing of care to ensure predictable outcomes related to the achievement of optimal oral function after tongue-tie release. Despite this, there are times when a frenectomy does not seem to “work”, “help” or make a significant difference. This is frustrating for families and can leave health care professionals wondering what to do next. This presentation will discuss screening for trauma as a way to improve frenectomy success. Learn more about the impact of collective trauma on the infant’s nervous system and the importance of the timing of frenectomy along with the sequencing of pre, intra and post-op habilitative care to increase outcome success.
Learning Objectives:
1. The attendee will describe a working definition of trauma.
2. The attendee will be able to describe how to apply compass concepts to tongue-tie care.
3. The attendee will be able to describe a 'map' to the terrain of trauma with initial sequences of care.
