Lip tie
This petition is to get lip ties checked and laser corrected in new born babies within 3 days of birth, whilst providing specialist support with aftercare. Whilst the NHS currently doesn't recognise the importance of this procedure and correction of this type of birth defect there's plenty of evidence to suggest lack of revision can cause a multitude of knock on health problems and speech issues in children and adults.
