Enhancing Oral Function with Frenectomy
‍

Resolving Tongue-Tie and Other Frenum-Related Issues. A frenectomy is particularly beneficial for patients who have a condition known as tongue-tie, where the lingual frenum restricts tongue movement, potentially leading to speech difficulties, challenges with eating, and other oral health issues. Similarly, an overly restrictive labial frenum can contribute to the development of a gap between the upper front teeth and gum recession. By performing a frenectomy, our team can release this tension, allowing for better movement and function, and in the case of children, can aid in proper speech development and oral growth.

A Simple Procedure with Significant Benefits
‍The frenectomy procedure is relatively quick and straightforward, often completed in just one visit. It involves the careful removal or repositioning of the frenum tissue to relieve the restriction. At Santa Ana Dental Specialists, we use advanced techniques to ensure the procedure is as comfortable and minimally invasive as possible. Most patients experience immediate improvement in function and a quick recovery period.


Tailored Treatment for Optimal Outcomes
‍Personalized Approach for Each Patient. Each patient's needs are unique, and we tailor our frenectomy procedures to address the specific concerns and goals of our patients. During the initial consultation, we thoroughly evaluate the frenum's condition and discuss the best course of action. Our goal is to provide a treatment that not only resolves the immediate issue but also contributes to the long-term health and comfort of your mouth.

‍Comprehensive Care and Support
‍Our commitment to patient care extends beyond the procedure itself. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and quick healing process. For young patients or those undergoing orthodontic treatment, our team works collaboratively with orthodontists or other specialists to ensure comprehensive care and optimal oral development.
