Frenectomies Roseville, CA

A frenectomy is a procedure used to remove or modify the frenulum, a small band of tissue that connects certain parts of your mouth. You may require a frenectomy to improve oral function or alleviate issues that can arise from a tight or restrictive frenulum. While frenectomies are available for patients of all ages, they are often provided for infants to improve oral function and allow for easier breast- and bottle-feeding.

There are two primary types of frenectomies: lingual frenectomies and labial frenectomies.

A lingual frenectomy addresses the frenulum located under the tongue, which connects the tongue to the floor of the mouth. When this frenulum is too tight or short, it can cause a condition known as ankyloglossia, commonly referred to as tongue-tie. Individuals with tongue-tie may experience difficulty with speech, eating, and oral hygiene. In severe cases, this can impact overall health and development, especially in children. By removing or releasing the frenulum, a lingual frenectomy can help restore proper tongue movement, enhancing your ability to speak and eat comfortably.

A labial frenectomy is performed to address the frenulum that connects the upper lip to the gums above the front teeth. In some cases, a tight upper frenulum can cause gaps between the front teeth or contribute to gum recession. Additionally, this can pose problems for those who wear dentures, as the frenulum may interfere with their fit. A labial frenectomy can resolve these concerns, improving both the appearance and function of your smile.

The frenectomy procedure is relatively simple and minimally invasive, and is often performed with a laser for increased comfort and effectiveness. Our dentist can usually complete the treatment in one appointment. During the process, you will be made comfortable, and detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to ensure proper healing. Frenectomies are safe and effective for both children and adults.

I'm not the type of person who dreads going to the dentist, but it's not my favorite way to spend part of my day. I was looking for a new dentist after relocating to Roseville and my first experience at BB was as painless as can be, in every way. They are very friendly, welcoming, and efficient. They answered all my questions and explained everything I needed to know. I wasn't surprised that the facilities were nicer than at my previous Los Angeles dentist, but I was very impressed with how modern and up to date BB is in their practice. My teeth were overdue for cleaning and x-rays and the oral hygienist completed the work in the least unpleasant visit I've ever had to the dentist. They seem to be affordable too and handled the insurance details of my bill with no problems. So far, so good - highly recommended!

I had a wonderful experience at BB this morning for a teeth cleaning and a consultation for veneers. From the moment I walked in, the office felt calm, quiet, and very inviting, beautifully decorated, comfortable, and absolutely pristine. Stacy (the dental hygienist) was amazing. She was incredibly gentle and thorough during my cleaning, which made the entire experience relaxing and stress-free. Dr. Sara took her time and was extremely thoughtful and detailed in her evaluation. She carefully walked me through whether I was a good candidate for veneers and explained the different cosmetic reconstruction options available for my smile, without any pressure. I really appreciated how honest, knowledgeable, and patient she was, it made me feel confident and well cared for. Overall, this office truly exceeded my expectations. Professional, warm, and attentive from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for both excellent dental care and a comfortable, welcoming environment.
