Areas of Emphasis
ASK JOY A QUESTION
We are expert in the assessment & care of babies with Ankyloglossia – tongue tie.
The rate of tongue ties in the general population is agreed upon by most experts as greater than 10%.....
Just stop for a moment…. imagine how many babies that actually is….
Let’s say you are in the local Mommy Facebook group.
There are say 350 moms in that group – so 35 of their babies have a tongue tie!
And, that is a conservative guess – many experts on the topic understand the rate is in fact higher.
As central Virginia’s only active members of IATP , this is Joyful Start’s area of expertise.
