Tongue & Lip Tie Laser Frenectomy

Welcome to our resource on tongue tie treatment options. We understand the worry and frustration that can come with seeing your child struggle with feeding and other challenges associated with tongue tie and aim to provide comprehensive information on a range of treatments designed to alleviate these symptoms and improve your child’s quality of life. Our goal is to support you every step of the way, offering solutions that bring comfort and relief to both you and your little one.

Laser Frenectomy

We understand how crucial it is for your child to feel comfortable and thrive, which is why we offer laser frenectomy as a treatment option. We use the highest quality surgical CO2 laser available that vaporizes the tissue instead of burning it like cautery or diode lasers. By choosing this gentle and precise method, we aim to provide the best care possible, ensuring minimal discomfort while effectively addressing the challenges of tongue tie. This advanced technique helps improve feeding and speech issues by gently releasing the tight frenulum, promoting better oral function and overall well-being.

Top Five Laser Frenectomy Benefits

  • Minimally Invasive: Laser frenectomy is a precise procedure that causes minimal tissue damage, resulting in less pain and discomfort for your child.

  • Quick Recovery: The use of a laser promotes faster healing, allowing your child to resume normal activities and feeding routines more quickly.

  • Reduced Risk of Infection: The laser sterilizes as it cuts, significantly lowering the risk of infection compared to traditional methods.

  • Improved Feeding and Speech: By releasing the tight frenulum, a laser frenectomy can enhance your child's ability to feed effectively and support proper speech development.

  • Minimal Bleeding: The laser cauterizes blood vessels during the procedure, leading to minimal bleeding and reducing the need for stitches.
