Pregnancy & Postpartum Guide

Arlington Tongue Tie Center is proud to sponsor the Pregnancy and Postpartum Guide! We are honored to play a role in connecting new and expectant mothers to resources that will help optimize their health and promote the healthy development of their baby.

Dr. Allie Lonneman is an award-winning pediatric dentist and laser frenectomy specialist at Arlington Tongue Tie Center, the only practice in the area solely dedicated to the treatment of tongue-ties and lip-ties in infants and children. With a reputation for being conservative, Dr. Allie prides herself on having a collaborative approach when it comes to treating tongue-ties. She believes in taking the time to confirm a true functional restriction is present and only recommending a release when traditional therapies – such as those provided by a Lactation Consultant or Myofunctional Therapist – do not result in the improvement of symptoms or function.

As an infant frenectomy specialist, Dr. Allie has successfully treated hundreds of babies with oral restrictions. In addition to being the most experienced release provider in Arlington, she is the only pediatric dentist in Northern Virginia and DC that has achieved certification through the American Board of Laser Surgery. Dr. Allie uses a state-of-the-art CO2 Light Scalpel laser for a precise and gentle frenectomy procedure. At Arlington Tongue Tie Center, parents can trust that their infants and children are receiving the highest standard of care, not just in Arlington but in all of Northern Virginia and Washington DC.

There’s no moment quite like the one when you discover you’re pregnant.

I remember the emotional roller coaster – excitement to start a family, uncertainty about how my life would change, worry about the physical toll, fear of the unknown… the list goes on.

Then, I started a mental checklist. I knew there was tons I needed to do, starting with a call to my doctor. But after that… what?

That’s where the idea came to put these resources together for you – our Pregnancy & Postpartum Guide. We have gathered top resources for parents-to-be and new parents, to help walk you through the process.

Whether you’re at the very beginning of your pregnancy journey and looking for the right provider, or you’re a new mom suffering through sleepless nights, these resources will help you find the people who can support you through this special journey.
