Tongue, Lip, and Cheek Ties are commonly referred to as Tethered Oral Tissue or TOTS and are something we encounter when working with infants. In this course we will take an in-depth look into what they are and how they impact the children in our care, now and in the future. We will also discuss methods of release, follow-up exercises, and revision, as well as adult health implications when release is not done.
