I would like to share my experience with parents who have kids with tongue ties. When my child was born, the paediatrician told me that Lucia had tongue tie. She mentioned it was mild so no need of cutting it. It appeared that Lucia had troubles feeding, gaining weight and sleeping for 6 weeks so I decided to go to West Market dental for a second opinion. The reception team got me in within 1 day for a tongue tie release consult. We talked to Dr.Faisal Assad who took the time to assess Lucia, to explain to me the condition and what to expect the following weeks. After the assessment, he did the same day the laser release of the ties ( which were moderate to severe and not mild!!) He warned me, since day one, that the rehabilitation journey will not be easy and it will be painful for the 3 first weeks. He was right, It was heart breaking to see my new born crying of pain every time I had to do the stretches 4x/day for 2 weeks then 3x/day for the 2 next weeks. It got better at week 3 (every kids is different) I thank Dr.Faisal Assad so much for being straight with me and told me it was going to be hard but worth it. Today, she had gained her weight back, she is eating well and the ties did not reattached and are healed! I can't thank him and his team enough for the great experience and honest opinion. I highly recommend this service with Dr. Faisal to parents who have to get this procedure done for their kids. Lucia is healthy and I am a happy mom today.More
