Tongue tie surgery is a microsurgical procedure that corrects a short or improperly attached lingual frenulum. This condition can restrict normal tongue movement, causing difficulties with speech, swallowing, breastfeeding (in infants), and in some cases, even bite formation.
The procedure involves gently cutting or reshaping the frenulum, instantly improving tongue mobility. It is performed under local anesthesia, takes only a few minutes, and requires minimal recovery. After the procedure, patients can immediately return to their usual activities.
Early diagnosis and correction of a tongue tie not only improve speech and daily comfort but also prevent future complications. In children, a short frenulum can lead to delayed speech development, improper bite formation, or feeding difficulties. In adults, it can affect diction, clarity of speech, and even cause jaw discomfort.
If left untreated, the problem can worsen, leading to additional dental or speech therapy challenges. That is why it is important to consult a specialist at the first signs of limited tongue mobility.
A short or improperly positioned lingual frenulum may not cause pain but can affect quality of life. In children, it often presents as difficulty breastfeeding or improper sound formation in speech. In adults, it can cause speech issues, discomfort while chewing or swallowing, limited tongue movement, a tight sensation under the tongue, or an aesthetic defect.
At RelaxDent in Lviv, we recommend not waiting until the frenulum causes serious problems. A planned examination can detect the need for correction early—either during speech development in children or when complaints appear in adults.
The need for tongue tie surgery can be congenital or acquired, depending on the frenulum’s anatomy and its effect on tongue function. Common reasons for the procedure include:
Tongue tie surgery is a minor procedure that takes only a few minutes, does not require hospitalization, and is performed under local anesthesia. At RelaxDent, we use gentle techniques that ensure fast healing and minimal discomfort.
It starts with a thorough dental exam, where the dentist evaluates your teeth and creates a personalized treatment plan
Modern diagnostic methods detect hidden decay, even in hard-to-reach areas, allowing the dentist to determine the damage accurately
To make the treatment as comfortable as possible, mild anesthesia is used, eliminating pain even in the most sensitive areas of the mouth
The dentist removes affected tissue, cleans the cavity, treats it with antiseptics, and fills the tooth, considering its location and load
