A very helpful video is: "Tongue-Tie: Impact on Breastfeeding. Complete
Management Including Frenotomy" by Dr. Evelyn Jain. Can be ordered from
Lakeview Breastfeeding Clinic, 6628 Crowchild Trail SW, Calgary, Alberta,
Canada T3E 5R8 Tel/FAX (403)246-7076
There are also several articles in the Journal of Human Lactation, vol 6,
no 3, 1990, (a "thematic" issue on ankyloglossia). And Alison
Hazelbaker's assessment tool would help, too. (5095 Olentangy River Rd,
Columbus, Ohio 43235)
Also check the Lactnet archives for earlier discussions on this topic.
