I know, search the archives, but this is such a quickie I hope you don't mind. I just need to know if clipping at 2 months is no longer an easy in office procedure. Is it still okay to take care of without the anesthesia and cauterizing? In my area there is an oral surgeon who will only do the procedure on older babies and use anesthesia and cauterize, which means months of issues before fixing. Just now hearing of this and need to know before I share with mom an option, if there is an option. I know plenty of docs who will do this in office--sadly 3 in the same practice she went to so why her ped did not just go across the hall...but that is another issue....She doesn't want to wait, might be able to convince oral surgeon to do it sooner. BUT, if it is still not too old to do it the usual quick snip go home way, I'd like to share that and the names with her.
