	Thrush vs Tongue Tie: What the heck is “white tongue”? Episode 109	08 Aug 2025	00:21:33
More From Tongue Tie Experts: 🎥 FREE 3-Part Video Training: Why Tongue Tie Is Missed — and How You Can Learn to Spot It with Confidence Perfect for lactation professionals, SLPs, Doulas, Therapists, and all Infant Care Providers. 👉 Watch now: https://tonguetieexperts.kit.com/free Tongue tied babies are often misdiagnosed with thrush, leading to unnecessary treatments.In this episode of the Tongue Tie Experts Podcast, host Lisa Paladino, CNM, IBCLC, discusses the differences between thrush and tongue tie, focusing on the common symptom of a white tongue in infants. Tongue tied babies are often misdiagnosed with thrush, leading to unnecessary treatments. Key Points: White Tongue Overview: A white tongue can indicate thrush or tongue tie. Proper diagnosis is crucial to avoid unnecessary treatments. Thrush Basics: Caused by a yeast infection (Candida), thrush presents as white patches in the mouth that don’t scrape off easily. It can cause feeding difficulties, diaper rash, and nipple pain in breastfeeding mothers. Tongue Tie Basics: Tongue tie restricts tongue movement, leading to milk residue on the tongue, which may appear white but can usually be wiped off. Differentiation: Thrush involves persistent white plaques, often with maternal symptoms. Tongue tie-related white tongue is typically milk residue that can be wiped away. Advice for Professionals: Honest communication with parents is key. Ensure proper referrals and follow-ups.

Interprofessional Disagreements: Differing views among health care providers can confuse families and complicate care. Lisa advocates for respectful, evidence-informed communication and building a trusted referral network. Parental Pressure for Immediate Answers: Families often seek quick fixes amidst feeding struggles. Lisa emphasizes the value of compassionate education, managing expectations, and offering follow-up support. Limited Access to Qualified Providers: A shortage of experienced tongue tie professionals can hinder timely treatment. Lisa encourages exploring virtual consults, maintaining referral lists, and advocating for increased local training. Takeaway: Navigating tongue tie assessment and treatment is both controversial and challenging—but with the right tools, education, and collaboration, lactation consultants can support families more effectively and confidently.

	5 Things I Learned at the Breathe & Thrive Conference: Episode 377	07 Mar 2025	00:27:03
In this episode, Lisa Paladino shares her top five takeaways from the American Laser Study Club’s Breathe & Thrive Conference. While tongue tie is often discussed in the context of breastfeeding, this conference reinforced its lifelong impact on airway health, speech, sleep, and overall function. Lisa breaks down key insights from leading experts and discusses how professionals can improve outcomes for infants and beyond. Key Takeaways: 1️⃣ Tongue Tie Is More Than a Breastfeeding Issue – It impacts oral development, airway health, and lifelong function, not just infant feeding. 2️⃣ Collaboration Is Essential – No single provider can fully treat tongue tie. Success comes from teamwork between lactation consultants, SLPs, bodyworkers, and release providers. 3️⃣ Function Over Form – A release alone isn’t enough. Pre- and post-procedure therapy are critical for proper tongue function. 4️⃣ Airway Health Starts Early – Mouth breathing, poor oral habits, and sleep issues often stem from oral restrictions that should be addressed in infancy. 5️⃣ Misinformation Still Exists – Many outdated myths persist, and ongoing education is essential to ensure families get the right care.

	“White Tongue” Thrush vs Tongue Tie: Episode 373	10 Jan 2025	00:19:53
What the heck is “white tongue”? Tongue tied babies are often misdiagnosed with thrush, leading to unnecessary treatments. In this episode of the Tongue Tie Experts Podcast, host Lisa Paladino, CNM, IBCLC, discusses the differences between thrush and tongue tie, focusing on the common symptom of a white tongue in infants. Tongue tied babies are often misdiagnosed with thrush, leading to unnecessary treatments. Key Points: White Tongue Overview: A white tongue can indicate thrush or tongue tie. Proper diagnosis is crucial to avoid unnecessary treatments. Thrush Basics: Caused by a yeast infection (Candida), thrush presents as white patches in the mouth that don’t scrape off easily. It can cause feeding difficulties, diaper rash, and nipple pain in breastfeeding mothers. Tongue Tie Basics: Tongue tie restricts tongue movement, leading to milk residue on the tongue, which may appear white but can usually be wiped off. Differentiation: Thrush involves persistent white plaques, often with maternal symptoms. Tongue tie-related white tongue is typically milk residue that can be wiped away. Advice for Professionals: Honest communication with parents is key. Ensure proper referrals and follow-ups.
