What are lip ties, and tongue ties?
Tongue-ties and lip-ties are restricted soft tissue (frenula) in the mouth. These tethered oral tissues impact function, growth and development of the jaws, mouth, teeth and airway.
How do lip ties, and tongue ties affect us?
Infants: painful breastfeeding, difficulty breast or bottle feeding, refux or colic symptoms, and/or failure to thrive
Toddlers, Children & Adolescents: difficulty swallowing solid foods, speech/articulation disorders, orthodontic issues, as well as possible sleep and breathing problems.

What is a buccal tie?
A buccal or cheek-tie is a restricted frenulum that connects the cheek to the gums. These can restrict the function of the cheeks and lips that are needed for feeding and/or speech.
How do buccal ties affect older children and adults?
Cheek ties are one of the main causes of gum recession, tooth root exposure and orthodontic problems.

Dentist
Dr. Lynsie Beilman is passionate about providing thoughtful, individualized care for infants and families navigating feeding challenges and oral restrictions. She graduated from Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine and went on to complete an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at Idaho State University, where she received extensive post-graduate training.
Dr. Beilman has pursued advanced education focused on airway health, oral function, early intervention orthodontics, and infant frenectomy care. Her training includes coursework through The Breathe Institute with Dr. Soroush Zaghi, MD; extensive infant frenectomy education through Untethered Way with Dr. Liz Turner and Dr. Meggie Graham; and training in the Chelsea Pinto Infant Frenectomy Protocol.
At Untied, Dr. Beilman uses the advanced LightScalpel CO₂ laser technology for infant frenectomy procedures. Every infant is evaluated alongside an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), allowing both breast- and bottle-feeding families to receive comprehensive feeding support as part of their visit.
Dr. Beilman believes strongly that a frenectomy is only one part of a much larger picture. She prioritizes collaborative care and works closely with lactation consultants, feeding specialists, therapists, and other healthcare professionals throughout the region to help families achieve the best possible outcomes.
Above all, Dr. Beilman believes in parent autonomy and individualized care. Every baby, parent, feeding relationship, and story is unique. Her goal is to provide families with a thorough evaluation, clear education, and compassionate guidance so parents feel informed and confident in choosing the path that is right for their child.
“Dr Billiot saved my breastfeeding relationship! My daughter’s pediatrician did not diagnose her lip or tongue tie and we struggled through painful nursing and colic for weeks. Two days after the procedure, my baby was a different baby. Better latch, rapid weight gain and no more screaming fits from gas. Thank you Dr. Liz!”
“My son had his ties revised 3 weeks before he turned 2, after 4 different health professionals said they weren’t an issue. He never had issues nursing other than a shallow latch and nursing a ton. At the time of his revision, his teeth began to get the first signs of decay and he still couldn’t walk. After revision, he began walking within a week! I truly believe the ties were affecting his body’s ability to walk. Also, all signs of tooth decay disappeared as we were able to brush his teeth without causing him pain”
“Dr. Billiot and her staff are very friendly and attentive. The office is very comfortable and inviting. My family members have always had a phobia of the dentist, but Dr. Billiot always puts their fears to rest. They know we are in good hands with her. Thank you.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
