Frenectomies

Frenectomies in Polaris, OH

Simple procedure. Big results.

A small piece of tissue in your mouth - called the frenum - can have a big impact on your oral health. When it’s too tight or attached in the wrong spot, it can affect speech, chewing, brushing, and even cause gum recession or gaps between teeth.

At Parkway Family Dental, Dr. Danny Moosa offers gentle, laser-assisted frenectomies to help patients of all ages improve their comfort and protect their long-term oral health.

What is a Frenectomy?

A frenectomy is a quick procedure that removes or adjusts the frenum when it’s causing problems. It’s commonly used to treat lip-ties, tongue-ties, or gum issues related to tight tissue. Left untreated, these conditions can lead to discomfort, difficulty speaking or eating, or gum damage.

Why Choose a Laser Frenectomy?

Dr. Moosa uses a soft tissue laser instead of a scalpel to create a smoother, more comfortable experience. Laser frenectomies offer:

-Minimal discomfort (often no anesthesia needed)
-Little to no bleeding
-No stitches
-Faster healing
-Lower risk of infection
-Shorter appointments
-Safe, precise results

This advanced technology allows Dr. Moosa to perform the procedure quickly while helping patients recover with less tenderness and swelling.

When is a Frenectomy Needed?

You or your child may benefit from a frenectomy if you notice:

-A gap between the front teeth
-Gum recession near a tight tissue attachment
-Trouble speaking or moving the tongue
-Pain when eating or brushing
-A tongue- or lip-tie

During your visit, Dr. Moosa will evaluate your mouth and recommend the best course of care.
