Tongue ties can affect the growth and development of the teeth and jaw, affecting alignment, tongue movement, and speech.
Our pediatric dentist performs a careful assessment to determine if a frenectomy is necessary. We’ll examine the tongue and lip attachments to see if they’re impacting your child’s feeding, speech, or oral health.
We discuss the treatment plan with you and answer any questions you may have. Our team makes sure you’re comfortable with each step of the process and understands the benefits of the procedure.
The frenectomy is a straightforward procedure that can often be completed in a matter of minutes. We use gentle, child-friendly techniques, and numbing options to ensure your child is comfortable throughout.
Following the procedure, we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions to promote quick healing and comfort. We may also recommend simple exercises to help your child adjust to the new movement and flexibility of their tongue or lip.
These will help ensure a smooth recovery and minimize any discomfort.
Simple, gentle exercises may be recommended to improve flexibility and function.
You may notice improvements in feeding, speech, and oral hygiene in the weeks following the procedure.

We start with a thorough examination of your child’s teeth and gums to understand the extent of any decay or damage. This allows us to recommend the most effective treatment, whether it’s a filling, crown, or another restorative solution.
Based on our findings, we create a treatment plan tailored to your child’s needs. We walk you and your child through each step, ensuring you’re both informed and comfortable.
We use local anesthetics and, when appropriate, mild sedation to make sure your child is relaxed and pain-free during the procedure. Our restorative options include tooth-colored fillings, crowns, and more. Each material is chosen for its durability and natural appearance, so your child’s smile stays bright and strong.
Once the treatment is complete, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. We’re here to support you with any follow-up care or questions.
