I've known since ,birth that DD had an upper lip tie but it didn't cause any BF problems.

I've found now she has teeth, that brushing her upper teeth is very stressful she fights me lifting her lip, and doing some research discovered the link between dental caries and ULT. Also I BF to sleep still which I know isn't a proven cause but I think the combination of things is going to be a problem.

I was speaking to an LC at my ABA meeting today who had a look and she agrees it is a grade 3or 4 lip tie and she said I should look at getting it lasered soon, there is a dentist in Melbourne who does them, and she can provide me with a referral. I felt relieved that someone agrees it's a problem as I didn't know who I was going to ask about, not sure if all dentists are up with this stuff?

Has anyone had any experience with this? What age did your child have it done? I'm thinking it will be about impossible to do it on DD at this age, but it don't want to wait and find she has cavities in 6months time.
