Frenectomy Warsaw
The freedom of movement of the tongue, lip or cheek has a huge impact on speech, breathing, swallowing and everyday comfort. When the frenulum is too short, tight or improperly attached, it can cause problems that build up over time. Frenectomy can restore the natural mobility of the tissues and eliminate restrictions that have often been underestimated for years.
At Supradent, we approach this procedure with great care. Although it is short and minimally invasive, its results can significantly improve the quality of life, both in children and adults. We assess each case individually, taking into account function and not just anatomy.
Frenectomy
When is a frenulum correction needed?
Frenectomy is most commonly performed on the tongue, upper or lower lip. A tongue frenulum that is too short can affect pronunciation, the position of the tongue in the mouth and proper swallowing. In children, it can cause speech difficulties, and in adults it can lead to muscle tension and temporomandibular joint problems.
An improperly attached labial frenum often promotes diastema, the gap between teeth, and can also cause receding gums and local inflammation. In such cases, frenum correction helps to stabilise the tissues and protect periodontal health.
The procedure involves a precise incision and appropriate shaping of the frenulum so that it does not restrict movement or exert abnormal tension. The whole procedure is performed under local anaesthetic and takes a short time, and the effects are felt very quickly.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is frenectomy?
The procedure involves incising or remodelling the frenulum so that it does not restrict the movement of the tongue or lip. The doctor remodels the tissues, taking care to ensure proper positioning and healing.
Is the procedure painful?
Frenectomy is performed under local anaesthetic, so the procedure is comfortable. There may be some slight tenderness afterwards, which quickly subsides.
How long does it take to heal?
Healing usually proceeds quickly and without complications. The first few days only require compliance with simple hygiene recommendations. Full tissue regeneration occurs within several days.
Is frenectomy performed on children?
The procedure is often performed in children, especially when the shortened frenulum affects speech, swallowing or bite development. Early intervention can prevent further problems.
Is rehabilitation or exercise needed after surgery?
In some cases, simple exercises are recommended, especially for the frenulum of the tongue. These help to consolidate the effect of the treatment and improve muscle function.
Does frenum correction affect orthodontic treatment?
In many situations, frenum plication is an important part of preparation for or in addition to orthodontic treatment, especially for diastemas or recurrent defects.
