Description
When is the procedure recommended?
- The lingual frenulum restricts tongue movement (ankyloglossia, so-called “tongue-tie”)
- Problems with pronunciation, swallowing, or feeding (in infants)
- The labial frenulum causes a gap between the incisors or gum tension
- Difficulty retaining dentures in elderly patients
- Orthodontist’s recommendation before fitting orthodontic braces
How does the procedure work?
At Stomo Clinic, we perform frenectomy under local anesthesia, making the procedure completely painless. We often use modern technologies that reduce bleeding and accelerate healing.
- The procedure typically takes a few minutes
- Quick recovery – return to normal function the same day
