What is a Frenectomy?

A frenectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal or modification of a frenum, a small fold of tissue that connects the lips, tongue, or cheeks to the surrounding structures in the mouth. Abnormal frenum attachment can lead to a variety of issues, including speech difficulties, restricted movement of the tongue or lips, gum recession, and orthodontic problems.

Types of Frenectomy:

  1. Lingual Frenectomy: This procedure involves the removal or modification of the lingual frenum, the tissue that connects the underside of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. Lingual frenectomy is often performed to correct tongue-tie or ankyloglossia, a condition where the frenum restricts the movement of the tongue, affecting speech and oral function.
  2. Labial Frenectomy: Labial frenectomy involves the removal or modification of the labial frenum, the tissue that connects the upper or lower lip to the gums. This procedure may be recommended to address issues such as gum recession, orthodontic problems, or discomfort caused by an overly tight frenum.

Benefits of Frenectomy:

  • Improved Oral Function: Frenectomy can help improve speech, chewing, swallowing, and overall oral function by removing restrictions caused by abnormal frenum attachment.
  • Prevention of Dental Issues: By addressing abnormal frenum attachment, frenectomy can help prevent or alleviate issues such as gum recession, orthodontic problems, and discomfort.
  • Enhanced Quality of Life: Frenectomy treatment can lead to improved comfort, confidence, and quality of life for patients affected by speech impediments or restricted oral movement.
