Tongue Tie Release

Functional Frenuloplasty is a term for tongue tie release BUT "Functional" means we ask the patient to perform their myofunctional exercises during the procedure so we get the most optimal depth and release.

Minimizes scaring

Minimal bleeding

This is a procedure performed in office with local anesthetic.

The actual procedure is only about 10 min and the patient is usually in and out within an hour.
