Meet the Team

Introducing Orange County's premiere CO2 laser frenectomy center for infants with a one of a kind, never before seen team, consisting of California's first children’s dentist to become an IBCLC lactation consultant Dr. Rosanne Berger, DDS, IBCLC, bestselling author and social media expert lactation consultant Danielle Gauss, IBCLC, CST aka "The Booby Fairy", frenectomy trained infant Chiropractor Dr. Michelle Weaver, DC, LC. Together these three have created the Tongue Tie Tribe. Unlike most tongue tie release centers which may take a more aggressive approach, our focus is to see the baby as a whole, and treat our patients in the most gentle, holistic, conservative approach possible. We focus on preparing the baby with myofascial release and suck training prior to the frenectomy procedure to ensure faster more efficient healing. We also have an Speech Language Pathologist who we work with closely for infants who need additional therapy and care to ensure better rehabilitation of your child’s tongue. We look at healthcare in a preventative approach. Tongue ties effect a person their entire life and have been linked to: Sleep Apnea, enlarged adenoids and tonsils, TMJ disorders and pain, migraines and headaches, slow growth, poor sleep, picky eating, speech issues, orthodontic issues, ear infections, tonsillectomies, even ADHD. Our goal is to catch ties early to prevent unnecessary procedures and treatments later on in life. Our primary focus is aftercare. No other center offers immediate chiropractic body work, with additional follow up bodywork, 2 lactation consults, cranial-sacral therapy, acupressure calming techniques, and suck training. Parenting is hard enough without the confusion of contrasting opinions. It takes a village, so we welcome you and your family to our tribe.
