135: Untangling Tongue Ties: Early Intervention & Empowering Parents with a Speech Language Pathologist


Listen Later

Our guest today is Rachael Rose, speech-language pathologist and owner of Creative Speech Therapy in Manhattan. We discuss the identification and treatment of tethered oral tissues (TOTs) in infants, more commonly known as tongue ties and lip ties, and their impact on feeding, speech, and overall development. Rachael explains the importance of early detection and intervention to prevent long-term issues, the importance of trusting parental intuition, the need for a supportive team approach, and the challenges parents face in getting proper diagnosis and treatment.
