Abstract/Notes

Ankyloglossia diagnosis and its’ management is varied. This case study followed a newborn with breastfeeding difficulties and inadequate weight gain and investigated the relevance of musculoskeletal management in supporting the dyad with breastfeeding difficulties post frenectomy. Chiropractic care was provided post frenectomy along with lactation management to assist the infant who was unable to latch directly to breastfeed and transfer milk efficiently. Further studies are needed to study the impact of chiropractic treatment on the success of frenectomy.
