Lactation & Infant Feeding Support
When Feeding Feels Overwhelming, Real Help and Real Answers Can Make All the Difference
Our team is led by Lillian Scott, a lactation consultant and speech-language pathologist. We help uncover the root cause of feeding struggles which are often tied to tongue function, oral muscle coordination, or subtle structural issues.
The goal?
Less stress, more connection, and a feeding journey that actually works for you and your baby.
At Developmental Dentistry, we look beneath the latch.
If feeding your baby has felt harder than it should. If it’s painful, exhausting, or full of doubt, you’re not alone.
Many families come to us after weeks of trying everything and still feeling like something’s not right.

When a Release is Needed
If a tongue tie or lip tie is restricting your baby’s function, we work closely with our surgical team to:
01
Prepare the baby with oral therapy and parent coaching

Perform a gentle laser frenectomy, if indicated
03
Provide post-release support to promote healing and improved function
We prioritize readiness, safety, and long-term results over rushing to a quick fix.
