Tongue and lip ties occur when the string of tissue under the tongue or lip, called fascia, is too tight, thick or short, causing difficulties with movement. Symptoms can vary based on the degree of the severity and, for infants and young children, may include trouble with feeding, speech and sleep. In this video, Dr. Julia Dobson explains what tongue and lip ties are, signs to look for in your child, and when to consider seeking treatment.
