Dr. Amy Luley - Tongue & Lip Tie Center

Dr. Amy Luley - Tongue & Lip Tie Center Dr. Amy Luley specializes in correcting tongue and lip ties using a LightScalpel Carbon Dioxide Laser

Tongue and lip ties can be quite common in infants and young children and can cause serious issues if not treated properly. A tongue/lip tie is a tight or thick string of tissue that restricts movement of the tongue or upper lip and affects a functional issue such as nursing, speech, feeding or sleep. Some tongue-ties are easily visible, while others may be hidden or “posterior”. Both can cause se

rious issues or difficulty with feeding and speech. At Pediatric Dentistry of Hamburg – Tongue and Lip Tie Center, we use a LightScalpel Carbon Dioxide Laser to perform the frenectomy. The laser cleanly and precisely vaporizes while sealing blood vessels simultaneously. The Carbon Dioxide laser is so precise that it is able to selectively remove only a few cells at a time. The procedure is near painless and can usually be completed in as little as 20-30 seconds. For infants, we have a nursing room where the mother can take their child post-procedure. Benefits of a Frenectomy:

For Infants

-Nursing/feeding with less pain and fewer problems
-Improved breathing
-Improved sleep

For Toddlers and Older Children

-Speaking more clearly
-Increase in confidence with speech
-Improved sleep and breathing
-Improvement in chewing, digestion, and swallowing

✨ Before & After: Lip + Tongue Tie Release ✨

👶✨ Could it be a tongue or lip tie? ✨👄

Tongue and lip ties can impact more than you think—from feeding in infancy to speech, sleep, and even dental development as your child grows.

🔍 Signs of a tongue tie:
• Difficulty latching or feeding
• Clicking sounds while eating
• Trouble sticking the tongue out or lifting it
• Speech challenges
• Mouth breathing or restless sleep

🔍 Signs of a lip tie:
• Trouble flanging the upper lip while feeding
• Milk leaking from the sides of the mouth
• Excessive gas or fussiness
• Gap between front teeth
• Difficulty keeping lips closed at rest

💡 Early evaluation can make a big difference! A proper assessment looks at function—not just appearance—and helps guide the best next steps for your child.

If you’re noticing any of these signs, we’re here to help 🤍

🌟 “It’s more than just teeth.”

👉Many children struggle with symptoms like mouth breathing, snoring, restless sleep, difficulty focusing, or frequent waking. This families journey is a reminder that looking beyond the teeth can make a lasting difference in a child’s health and quality of life.

💥Thank you to this amazing family for sharing their airway journey. We hope their story helps another family recognize the signs and know they’re not alone.

✨Better breathing. Better sleep. Better health.

Here is a before and after of a lip and tongue tie release we completed at our office 3 years later. 🌟

We performed her release when she was just a baby, and now we have the joy of seeing her in our dental clinic as she grows! At her recent cleaning visit, we took a peek at her release sites… and WOW — the progress is amazing. ‼️

Moments like this remind us how important early intervention and proper healing support can be. We love getting to be part of these journeys and watching our patients thrive over time! 🩷
