Frenectomy, Lip and Tongue Tie in York and Hanover, PA
What is Frenectomy?
A frenectomy is a simple periodontal procedure that removes or modifies restrictive tissue bands (frenums) in the mouth. This treatment addresses lip and tongue ties that can interfere with proper oral function, speech development, eating, or orthodontic treatment by carefully releasing the tight tissue connections that limit normal movement and development.
