This is the best summary I could come up with:

Lactation consultants and dentists have aggressively promoted the procedures, even for babies with no signs of genuine tongue-ties and despite a slight risk of serious complications, a New York Times investigation found.

In 2020, a panel of 16 leading ear, nose and throat specialists published guidelines warning that tongue-ties were being over-diagnosed and that cheek-tie releases simply “should not be performed.”

In Delaware, Dr. Nicole Aaronson, a pediatric ear, nose and throat surgeon, said that last week, she saw an 11-day-old boy who was hospitalized for weight loss because of tongue damage from a laser procedure.

Dr. Soham Roy, chair of the pediatric ear, nose and throat practice at Children’s Hospital Colorado, has operated on babies injured by lasers.

After arriving in Boise in 2017, Ms. Henstrom got to work establishing her lactation consulting business, Baby Bonds, taking midwives out to lunch and offering free breastfeeding classes.

Sitting in Dr. Zink’s waiting room a few days later, Vivi’s mother, Aubrey Nobili, could hear her baby’s screams over the muffling hum of a noise machine.
