What Is Frenum Treatment?
A frenum (or frenulum) is a small fold of tissue that connects the lips, cheeks, or tongue to the gumline. If a frenum is too tight or thick (a tongue or lip tie), it can cause issues with oral function and health. Frenum treatment, or frenectomy, is a surgical procedure that removes or modifies a frenum to address those issues.
When Is Frenum Treatment Needed?
- A tight or thick frenum that hinders proper movement.
- Trouble with speech, eating, or drinking.
- A large gap between your two front teeth.
- Receding gums from a tight frenum.
- Pain or swelling when you brush your teeth.
The Benefits of Frenum Treatment
Treatment for a tight or thick frenum can result in:
- Improved ability to speak, eat, and maintain proper oral hygiene.
- Higher success with orthodontic treatment.
- Reduced risk of gum recession.
- Better overall oral health.

"If we could give Dr Beach 100 stars we would. She is taking care of an issue my husband is having. She called us personally, on vacation, to help him resolve the issue. She came into the office early, when we returned to make certain everything had been resolved. She's more than a dentist, she's more than a dentist, she's like family. She goes over and beyond what anyone would expect a doctor to do. She's AMAZING!"
