Efficacy of Neonatal Release of Ankyloglossia

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if frenotomy for ankyloglossia will improve infant breastfeeding, decrease maternal nipple pain and increase duration of breastfeeding with the hypothesis that frenotomy will do all of the above.

Clinical Trial Description

The primary objective of our study is to determine if frenotomy (or release of tongue tie) for ankyloglossia (tongue tie) will decrease maternal nipple pain with breast feeding and improve infant's ability to breast feed. Our secondary objective is to determine if frenotomy for ankyloglossia will improve the length of time a mother breast feeds. Our hypothesis is that frenotomy will decrease maternal nipple pain, improve infant's breast feeding and prolong the duration of breast feeding. ;
