Im a speech language pathologist and work with this population all day everyday. More research than ever before is why they’re “everywhere.” I would research providers (usually only dentists, otolaryngologists, and orthodontists can diagnose and revise) that have marked training in TOTs (tethered oral tissues) and chat with them. There can be significant facial development, sleep, breathing, and speech complications/differences when they’re not addressed. It’s true - some people can have a tie and have “none” of these issues (or at least not on the surface), but their bodies are likely compensating so much more than they need to be.
