Did You Know?

A lip tie that wasn't taken care of when you were a baby can cause problems for you as an adult. If you are experiencing some of these common problems, you might have a lip tie that, with a lip tie procedure, can reduce the negative impact on your life. 

Here are 5 common problems that you may experience as an adult with a lip tie: 

1. Speech problems. There may be certain sounds you cannot say correctly due to tongue or mouth placement. This can lead to decreased self-confidence when you have to speak to others. You may experience situations where you stutter as you try to say the sound correctly repeatedly. 
2. Experience disruption in your sleep. A lip tie can cause you to move a lot at night, disrupting your sleep and causing trouble in your sleep pattern. You may be uncomfortable or not able to breathe in certain positions. 
3. Do you need help eating certain foods? When you have food in your mouth to chew and swallow properly, you have to move the food around in a certain way. When a lip tie impacts you, limiting the type of food you consume can be more difficult. 

While not everyone impacted by a lip tie needs a lip tie procedure, contacting Dr. Judy Strutz, and her team for a consultation can help you get the answers you need.
