OUR PEDIATRIC TONGUE-TIE CENTER

If your baby has difficulty latching or breastfeeding—or if your toddler or child struggles with chewing, speaking, or snoring—they may have a tongue-tie or lip-tie, a condition that limits the natural movement of the tongue or lips.

At Wake Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry, our Pediatric Tongue-Tie Center in both Raleigh and Garner provides gentle, precise treatment using advanced laser technology. Led by our frenectomy specialist, Dr. Kornstein, we perform laser frenectomies that are quick, minimally invasive, and designed with your child’s comfort in mind. Our goal is simple: to help babies and children feed, speak, and grow with confidence and ease.

PAIN AND ANXIETY-FREE APPOINTMENTS WITH IN-HOUSE SEDATION

Dental visits can feel overwhelming for children. That’s why we provide in-house sedation options that are administered and carefully monitored by our highly trained dentist anesthesiologist, Dr. Pritts. Each sedation plan is customized to your child’s needs to help ease anxiety, increase comfort, and make longer or more complex procedures more manageable. Conveniently available at our Raleigh location, in-house sedation ensures your child’s safety and your peace of mind.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

Remember, these answers are general guidelines, and it’s always best to consult with one of our dentists who can provide personalized recommendations and address any specific concerns you may have about your child’s oral health.

It is recommended by the American Association of Orthodontists that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7. This allows orthodontists to assess their dental development and identify any potential issues that may require early intervention.

Early orthodontic intervention, also known as interceptive orthodontics, can address dental problems in children at a young age. By identifying and treating issues such as overcrowding, cross bites or misaligned jaws early on, we can help guide proper dental development, reduce the need for more extensive treatment in the future and potentially shorten the duration of orthodontic treatment.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends children visit the pediatric dentist every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. However, the frequency may vary depending on your child’s specific dental needs and oral health status.

To prevent cavities, it is essential to encourage good oral hygiene practices. This includes brushing your child’s teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily and limiting sugary snacks and drinks. Additionally, regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings can help detect and address early signs of tooth decay.

Dental X-rays are generally safe and emit minimal radiation. Pediatric dentists take necessary precautions, such as using lead aprons and thyroid collars, to ensure the safety of your child during X-ray procedures. X-rays are crucial for detecting dental issues that may not be visible during a visual examination, allowing for early intervention and treatment if necessary.
