Frenectomy
Enhance your oral function and aesthetics with a simple and safe surgical procedure that relieves restricted movement and gapped teeth.
The frenum is a small band of tissue that connects the lips, tongue, or cheeks to the underlying gums. When the frenum is too tight, short, or positioned improperly, it can lead to functional and aesthetic issues, such as restricted movement of the upper lip, speech impediments, gapped teeth, and hindrance of effective toothbrushing and flossing. We offer laser frenectomies as a safe and minimally invasive solution to release or modify the frenum, improving oral function and overall oral health.
The Process
We believe a beautiful smile begins with the right communication and a commitment to dental health. Each visit to our office starts with a conversation about you: your health and your dental needs and goals.

We utilize a specialized dental laser to precisely remove or modify the short frenum. The laser energy gently vaporizes the tissue, causing minimal bleeding and discomfort. The procedure is quick, and most patients experience minimal post-operative pain or swelling. Laser frenectomy provides excellent precision and control, minimizing the risk of damage to surrounding tissues and promoting faster healing.
