- Also known as lingual frenectomy, being tongue tied affects jaw and bone development. We performed a lingual frenectomy on this patient to restore his mouth's function and mobility. A quick a painless procedure, the lingual frenectomy is a surgical procedure to free up this band of lingual tissue and release the tongue... He was thrilled with the quick and effective results!

Thanks for the gift of this video! So helpful to calm nerves in prep for this same procedure.
Good
Why would you not completely remove it? Seems counter productive. Also, don’t have this done with oral myofunctinal therapy, please! It will just grow back.
with or without? i thought myofunctional therapy was important for tongue tie release
@@rashed4034 without doing it without myofunctional therapy will not be very effective i'll have tongue tie surgery in 5 days and im happy im getting honestly it causes so much tension in my neck area
My three year old son is about to have this procedure in the coming months... Is there any pain once the andesitic wears off?
I've done the surgery but I'm still not able to touch the roof my month. Any advice you could share with me please?
I was told i had this when i was in middle school (after years and years of speech therapy until kindergarten - 6th grade) but my parents didnt want me to do it because they were afraid I'd not be able to speak. Based on this whole mewing thing, I think it has something to do with why i have such a weirdly shaped side profile/double chin, since moving my tongue gets rid of it but it is not comfortable to do. My tongue goes out less than this guys :P
PS I had this surgery in July 2022 :D it was super easy (though it sucked the first 3 or 4 days) and my tongue feels so much more freeeee lol
@@nicx7778 How old were you when yiu had this? I'm afraid of my tongue falling back into my throat and disturbing my sleep after I get the frenectomy. How long did it take for you to recover?
@@hulk2406 35. It hurt, but i was fine immediately afterwards.
@@nicx7778 Did it fix your speech issues?
Joe don`t look at me like that :D
Joe stop looking at me like that youre scaring me
Most made up crap I’ve ever heard of. Never had a problem and mine is like his. I’m 55.
Good for you and your quality of life! However, your experience does not account for that of others. Self-centered statements and thoughts like yours is why the world can be so messed up at times.
