Gentle Frenectomy for Better Function, Speech & Oral Health
A restricted frenum—a small fold of tissue inside the mouth—can interfere with essential functions like speaking, eating, and oral hygiene. This condition, commonly referred to as a tongue-tie or lip-tie, can affect infants, children, and even adults. At Smaya’s Dento Care, we offer safe and precise frenectomy procedures that improve mobility, enhance oral function, and support better speech and feeding in a calm, child-friendly environment.
What Is a Frenectomy?
A frenectomy is a minor surgical procedure that involves removing or modifying the frenum—the thin band of tissue that connects the tongue to the floor of the mouth (lingual frenum) or the upper lip to the gums (labial frenum). When these tissues are too short, thick, or tight, they can restrict movement, leading to issues such as breastfeeding difficulties in babies, speech challenges in children, or gum recession and spacing issues in adults. At Smaya’s Dento Care, we use advanced and minimally invasive techniques—often with lasers—for fast, comfortable, and effective results.
Why Choose a Frenectomy?
Frenectomy can provide immediate and lasting benefits. For infants, it often resolves breastfeeding difficulties, improving latch and nutrition. In children and adults, it can improve speech clarity, prevent gaps between front teeth, and support better oral hygiene by allowing easier brushing and flossing. At Smaya’s Dento Care, we focus on early diagnosis, comfort-centered care, and long-term improvement in oral function and quality of life.
