Upper frenulum tie

[Sagres]

DS2 has 1 but has been getting thinner as time goes on, when he first got teeth was a concern as he had a rather wide gap but seems to have improved over time.

Have had no BF issues

Ditto, DD1s was big enough that when her teeth first came through there was a bit of a bigger gap between the front 2 but over time the frenulum and gap have got smaller over time and I don't even notice it now.

We recently discovered one on DD3. It is causing her top teeth to become crooked and she also can't purse her lips well enough to use a straw. We spoke with a dentist in Sydney who will snip it with a laser for $500. It is expensive but it is also pain free and avoids the need for an operation in hospital. DD3 has been breastfeeding for 18 months and her lip tie has not been an issue; if it had been, we may have noticed it sooner.

Thanks again ladies.

Lisa - how do they keep the kids still for that? Would you mind pm ing me the dentist's details?
