Common Signs of a Tongue or Lip Tie
Tongue and lip ties can be easy to miss, and the signs often change with age:
In babies:
- Painful nursing, shallow latch, or clicking sounds while feeding
- Difficulty bottle-feeding
- Slow weight gain, reflux, or frequent gassiness and fussiness
In toddlers and older children:
Delayed or unclear speech (trouble with l, r, t, d, th, s sounds)
Difficulty chewing or a preference for soft foods
Mouth breathing or an open-mouth resting posture
A gap between the upper front teeth
Recognizing several of these is a good reason to have your child evaluated.
What Happens After You Submit
Once you complete the check, a member of our team reviews your answers and emails you a summary of what your child's symptoms may suggest. If an evaluation would help, we'll invite you to book a consultation — no pressure, no obligation.
At Tooth + Tongue in Walnut Creek, tongue and lip ties are released gently with a CO2 laser — and because our practice is led by a dentist-anesthesiologist, even anxious or very young children can be treated safely and comfortably.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. It's a symptom check to help you understand whether an evaluation may be worthwhile. Only an in-person exam can confirm a tongue or lip tie.
What if my child has several of these signs?
The more signs you notice, the more it's worth having your child evaluated — especially if feeding, speech, or sleep are affected. Early assessment often means simpler treatment.
Is the check free?
Yes, the symptom check is completely free. If you'd like an evaluation afterward, our team will explain any costs and insurance options up front.
