It’s super hard to see in my sons mouth since he was tiny but I’m thinking he’s lip tied? I don’t know much abt it, any input would be helpful.
Also has anyone seen anything like the second pic I noticed it this morning, my first guess was a tooth was pushing out but I can’t feel anything hard, but it’s hard to tell. Hoping he opens his mouth alil more so I can see

First pic definitely looks like a lip tie. Both my boys have it. Often accompanied by posterior tongue ties

@joyfulmom, yeah. Thankfully Jacob has great teeth, which his dentist is surprised about

Yes he’s lip tied, your dentist or his pediatrician can tell you if they think it needs to be cut or not. Both my sons were also lip tied and it didn’t mess with their teeth or eating and I was actually told that eventually they would smack their mouth and end up cutting it themself and sure enough that had with both of them.

@mommakayla18, if we correct it long before his adult teeth come would that definitely help so his adult teeth don’t gap also?
Kayla ··
if they cut it since he probably still doesn’t have all his baby teeth yet like his 2 year old molars and such his teeth will finally all pull together and you won’t have any issues
Jenny··
@mommakayla18, do they tend to not want to cut it or just depends? And thank you, I hope so

My daughter's looked just like that. I found when brushing she complained alot because she wasn't able to brush straight across without bashing into the piece of skin and food would get stuck there. Then one day she was climbing up on my husband's lap and she smashed her lip on his knee and it tore it. It bled for 5 min and that was the end of that. She did struggle with breast feeding and getting good suction because of it so now I wish I would of got it cut when she was born.

@joyfulmom oh yes she hated brushing terribly until it got torn. I used an electronic toothbrush that did seem to help.

I can bet. Poor girl, definitely looking this more this it’s got a decent gap between his teeth and now I’m worried he’ll have cavity issues!

Yess! Happend the samething with my daughter😂 except she smashed her lip on his hand.

@symantha_chandler, @claudie_02, the only reason besides his decent gap and worry of cavities is he’s smashed his lip before pretty good there was a gash there but it just healed I sadly enough feel like some of that might be scar tissue bc I swear it wasn’t as that big before hand
