Frenectomy
Functional Release & Correction This is a simple, minor procedure to release a tight “frenulum”—the small fold of tissue restricting the movement of your tongue or lips. It corrects conditions known as tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) or lip-tie, immediately freeing movement to improve speech, eating, and oral hygiene.
Strategic Health & Quality of Life Benefits
- Restore Function & Speech: Immediately improves tongue mobility to resolve feeding difficulties (breastfeeding or swallowing) and corrects speech impediments for clearer articulation. (though speech therapy may be recommended for the best results).
- Dental Aesthetics & Health: Removes the tissue tension that causes gaps between front teeth (diastema) and pulls gums away from teeth (recession).
