  • To release or not to release the tongue, that is the question

    To release or not to release the tongue, that is the question
    Mar 1 2026
    Not every tongue-tie causes problems — but when it does, it can affect: 1. Feeding (especially in babies)
    • Difficulty latching during breastfeeding
    • Clicking sounds while feeding
    • Poor weight gain
    • Maternal nipple pain
    In infants, this is the most common reason doctors consider treatment. 2. Speech In some children, tongue-tie may affect pronunciation of sounds that require tongue elevation (like “t,” “d,” “l,” “r,” “th”).
    However, many children with mild tongue-tie speak completely normally. 3. Oral health & function
    • Difficulty licking lips or clearing food from teeth
    • Gaps between lower front teeth
    • Trouble with certain oral movements (kissing, playing wind instruments)
    Should it be done sooner rather than later? It depends on symptoms, not just appearance. 👶 In newborns If feeding problems are present, early treatment is often recommended because:
    • Feeding difficulties can affect growth
    • Early treatment is quick and simple
    • Babies usually heal very fast

  • Why Tongue Position Matters – The Foundation of Jaw Growth

    Why Tongue Position Matters – The Foundation of Jaw Growth
    Mar 1 2026
    Episode 2: In this episode, we take a deeper dive into myofunctional therapy and explore one of the most overlooked aspects of oral health: tongue posture. The tongue is more than a muscle for eating and speaking—it’s a powerful guide for facial growth and airway development. I break down how proper tongue-to-palate positioning supports optimal jaw growth, nasal breathing, and balanced muscle function. We also discuss what happens when the tongue rests low in the mouth, including how it can contribute to narrow palates, crowded teeth, mouth breathing, sleep challenges, and long-term structural changes. You’ll learn how early habits, feeding patterns, and oral restrictions can influence development, and why addressing function early can change the trajectory of growth. Whether you’re a parent, dental professional, bodyworker, or holistic provider, this episode will help you understand why tongue posture is truly foundational to lifelong health. Because when we change function, we influence growth—and that changes everything.
