Dr. Kevin Kennedy Jr. of Spring Creek Pediatric Dentistry in Clarksville is introducing an industry-leading solution to the local area to support newborn infants and young mothers experiencing breastfeeding difficulty.
The simple, corrective procedure helps reduce the problems that result from a baby born with a tongue tie or lip tie. Dr. Kennedy recognizes the special connection between mother and newborn through breastfeeding and first began researching the condition and procedure through the challenges his wife experienced with his own daughter over three years ago.
Dr. Kennedy has embraced a teamwork approach by developing connections with local pediatricians, lactation consultants, and feeding therapists in the art of diagnosis, treatment, and follow up care. The corrective, minimally-invasive procedure can often be performed same-day using a dental laser in his brand-new office located in the Sango area. Performing the procedure in the office setting avoids the risks and added expenses encountered with using general anesthesia.
Spring Creek Pediatric Dentistry also provides comprehensive pediatric dental services for kids and teens of all ages and is welcoming new patients to the brand new practice. To schedule a tongue tie or lip tie consultation or a new patient appointment with Dr. Kennedy for your child, please call 931-648-9930.
