The best time to operate on the tongue tie is around one to one and a half years of age. If he’s too young, his tongue tie is going to continue to develop and it will recede backwards. So at birth, if you think his tongue tie is short, but you look closely, it will slowly recede and lengthen as he gets older and as he develops. Therefore, it is completely unnecessary to go for surgery when the tether feels short after birth, other than to increase the trauma of this surgery. If the age is too old to have the tongue tie correction surgery, then he will miss the best time to learn the language of speech and form a relatively fixed way of speaking, and the effect of this correction will be poor. Therefore, between the ages of one and one and a half years, children are more cooperative and start to learn to speak gradually. After tethering, it is good for the child’s rapid and correct speech pronunciation, and the degree of cooperation is better, so between one and one and a half years old is the best time for treatment.
