Tongue-Tie Release Demonstration Video – Matthew Rowe, DDS, MSD

October 17, 2019

Matthew Rowe, DDS, MSD, gives a hands-on demonstration and introduction to CO2 laser tongue-tie release on a pig jaw during a recent American Laser Study Club (ALSC) continuing education course. This video was taken at the “Pediatric Tongue- and Lip-Ties and Laser Frenectomies” course in July 2019, in College Park, MD. Dr. Rowe was an instructor at this course, alongside Brynn Leroux, DDS; Pam Price, LPN, IBCLC, CST; and Peter Vitruk, PhD. Most ALSC courses offer hands-on wet labs where attendees can try out the laser and learn the basics of how to use it.

Any clinician interested in learning how to perform optimal tongue-tie releases should consider taking one of the ALSC courses. For a list of scheduled upcoming ALSC-endorsed laser frenectomy courses, click here.
