Frenectomy with Laser
A Revolutionary Approach at Dr. Motiwala Dental Clinic and Implant Center
At Dr. Motiwala Dental Clinic and Implant Center, we prioritize advanced, patient-friendly solutions to enhance oral health and functionality. One of our state-of-the-art procedures is the Frenectomy with Laser, a minimally invasive, pain-free treatment that delivers excellent results with faster healing and improved comfort.
What is a Frenectomy with Laser?
A frenectomy is a procedure to remove or modify the frenulum, a small band of tissue in the mouth. This tissue can sometimes restrict movement or cause other oral health issues.
Common areas for a frenectomy include:
Lingual Frenulum
Located under the tongue. A restrictive frenulum (tongue-tie) can interfere with speech, eating, and oral hygiene.
Labial Frenulum
Found between the upper or lower lip and the gums. An abnormal labial frenulum can cause gum recession, gaps between teeth, or difficulties with braces or dentures.
Using laser technology for a frenectomy offers a modern, precise, and painless alternative to traditional surgical methods.
Why Opt for a Laser Frenectomy?
Our Frenectomy with Laser technique provides several significant benefits:
Pain-Free Experience
Lasers seal nerve endings during the procedure, reducing discomfort.
Quick Healing
Laser technology minimizes swelling and accelerates tissue recovery.
Minimal Bleeding
The laser cauterizes blood vessels, ensuring little to no bleeding.
No Stitches Required
Eliminating the need for sutures means a more comfortable recovery process.
Enhanced Precision
The laser targets the frenulum with pinpoint accuracy, preserving surrounding tissues.
Who Needs a Frenectomy with Laser?
This procedure is ideal for individuals of all ages, from infants to adults, experiencing:
Speech issues due to tongue-tie.
Breastfeeding difficulties in infants caused by restricted tongue movement.
Gaps between front teeth or gum irritation caused by an abnormal frenulum.
