Montvale, United States - August 18, 2020 /PressCable/ —

With training from prestigious institutions like Yale and Columbia University Medical Center, it’s no surprise that Dr. Tommy Lee is one of New Jersey’s premier pediatric dentists. If you read any of his patients’ reviews, you’ll learn that he’s also highly regarded in terms of patient satisfaction and genuine care for children’s dental health.

Dr. Lee’s winning combination of knowledge and skill as a pediatric dentist is why parents of babies with tongue-tie flock to his Montvale office for pediatric dental care.

Tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) is a congenital condition in which the lingual frenulum ‘ties’ the tongue to the base of the mouth, limiting tongue movement. Occurring in up to 11% of newborns, it’s considered a common condition. Even so, many parents are unaware that tongue-tie could be the root cause of a number of issues with their child’s health.

In fact, tongue-tie isn’t usually discovered until concerns are raised about colic, a lack of healthy weight gain, issues with the child’s front teeth, speech impediments in older children, or even the mothers’ painful breastfeeding experiences.

More information on what tongue-tie is, and how to treat it can be found here.

Dr. Lee has tirelessly devoted his pediatric dentistry practice to educating parents about this condition. He advises families on how to treat tongue-tie, with solutions ranging from tongue mobility exercises to a quick surgical treatment called a frenectomy, or frenotomy. Dr. Lee can even perform this simple procedure in the Bear Brook Dental Care office. The procedure is nearly painless and, in most cases, infants can successfully breastfeed immediately after the treatment.

Serving Montvale, New Jersey, as well as nearby communities in New Jersey and New York, he’s one of the few pediatric dentists in the area able to perform the surgical procedure.
