We just had our 8 year old's tongue tie released, and it has been fascinating to hear from him about what it feels like. One thing I've learned it just how important it is to do the exercises after release to prevent adhesions from forming. It was done at 6:00pm, and by the next morning he was feeling like he couldn't stick his tongue out. After some exercises, we were able to get it stretched out again, and it is healing nicely. There are pictures on the link.
Warmly,
