Releasing tethered oral tissues (TOTs) as early as possible can have sweeping effects on a patient’s health. In this CE webinar, Dr. Poplin will review common problems related to tongue-ties and lip-ties, such as breastfeeding, speech, and dental issues. He will then discuss how the 9.3-micron CO2 all-tissue laser enables efficient, precise frenectomies, with minimal bleeding, minimal post-op discomfort and remarkably rapid healing.

During this CE webinar, we will
• Discuss anatomy, diagnosis, treatment planning, and post-treatment care
• Explain procedural examples of lingual frenectomy and maxillary labial frenectomy to understand the diagnosis and treatment of TOTs pathology in children
• Understand the rationale for laser-assisted treatment of tongue-tie and lip-tie as it relates to breastfeeding, maxillary diastemas, and speech
• Summarize the science behind the 9.3-micron CO2 laser's efficient, blood-free soft tissue cutting
