Lip tie in newborns is a condition that, while not often widely discussed, can significantly impact an infant’s feeding, oral development, and overall comfort. At Dr. Kammath's pediatric Dental Clinic in Trivandrum, understanding and managing lip tie is a vital part of providing comprehensive care. For infants (newborn to infants under 3 years), we do tongue tie and lip tie release under oral sedation. For children of 4 years and above, minor surgical procedures can be done under conscious sedation (Happy Gas Therapy). This blog explains the role of pediatric dentistry in identifying, diagnosing, and treating lip tie, supporting healthier starts for infants and peace of mind for parents.
