Lip & Tongue Tie at OCPD

Lip & tongue tie at OCPD is a specialized clinic located in Monroe, NY, operating as a dedicated branch of Orange County Pediatric Dentistry. The clinic focuses exclusively on the diagnosis and treatment of tethered oral tissues, commonly known as lip and tongue ties, which can affect infants and children. Their mission is to improve the health and wellness of their young patients by correcting these conditions. The clinic's services are centered around frenectomy procedures, which are in-office treatments designed to correct a tight frenum—the band of tissue connecting the lip to the gum or the tongue to the floor of the mouth. The clinic utilizes advanced CO2 laser technology for these procedures, which offers several benefits, including reduced bleeding, minimal discomfort, and faster recovery times. The team of board-certified pediatric dentists, including Dr. Dayna Olstein and Dr. Arielle Rolon, are highly trained in performing these minimally invasive procedures. Lip & Tongue Tie at OCPD addresses various symptoms associated with tethered oral tissues, such as difficulty with breastfeeding and bottle-feeding, gassiness, reflux, poor weight gain in infants, and potential speech and dental development issues in older children. The clinic provides a comprehensive approach, including a thorough evaluation, diagnosis, the laser frenectomy itself, and detailed post-operative care instructions. They are dedicated to creating a comfortable and reassuring environment for both children and their parents, understanding the concerns that can arise with such medical procedures. The practice emphasizes the importance of early intervention to prevent future problems and support a child's optimal growth and development.
