Ep 28 Chicago Tongue Tie

In this episode Katie and Dr Justin talk about how Chicago Tongue Tie Center started and why they see a need for a Tongue Tie Center.  Since Chicago Tongue Tie Center is new in early 2022 (though Dr Justin, Dr Bindi and Dr Derik have been preforming frenectomies for years) they discuss building a team, who should be on that team and how the team not only helps the families they serve but the professionals as well.  Podcast guest: Dr. Justin completed his general dentistry training at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and this was followed by a two-year advanced program focused on pediatric dentistry at the UIC Hospital. In addition to being a board-certified pediatric dentist, he is also a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, the highest honor a dentist can achieve in this specialty.  On top of being a practicing dentist, Dr. Justin is also a professor. He currently serves as faculty at Midwestern University, teaching pediatric dentistry, and he also lectures at continuing education events across the country.  To stay abreast of the latest advancements in dentistry, he is a member of the American Dental Association, Illinois Dental Society, and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry.Podcast host: Katie Oshita, RN, BSN, IBCLC has over 22 years of experience working in Maternal-Infant Medicine.
