Frenectomy

Frenectomy is a procedure used to release the lip or tongue frenum.

A restrictive lip and/or tongue frenum (tie) could be the reason why your child is having feeding difficulties, speech issues and/or improper jaw development.

The goal is to have your child visit the dentist for well baby check up before there is an issue with their teeth and/or growth and development of the jaws. In most cases, a dental exam will let your child’s dentist catch small problems early.

Benefits of using a laser to carry out a frenectomy

Here at our dental office, our pediatric dentists use a CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) laser to carry out this procedure. There are several benefits of using a laser:

Minimal bleeding
Minimal discomfort
The procedure is rapid
Clean and disinfected wound

The procedure can also be performed on newborn babies. As a restrictive lip or tongue may interfere with breastfeeding. This frenectomy could help to relieve your child from daily struggles.
