Frenectomy

What Is a Frenectomy? A Small Procedure with a Big Impact on Comfort and Function

A frenectomy is a quick and effective procedure that removes a small strip of excess tissue, called a frenum, from areas like beneath the tongue (lingual frenectomy) or inside the upper lip (labial frenectomy). Though small, these tissues can sometimes restrict movement, affect speech, cause gum recession, or interfere with braces and other dental work.

This simple treatment is commonly performed on both children and adults and can make a big difference in comfort, mobility, and overall oral health. Whether it's helping a child overcome a tongue-tie or preparing for orthodontics, a frenectomy is a straightforward way to support a healthier, more functional smile.
