Glossary of Terms
Frenectomy is the release of a tie.
Functional Frenuloplasty is the release of a tie, suturing of the diamond-shaped surgical site vertically which negates the need for active management of the surgical site combined with Feeding Support/Therapy and/or Myofunctional therapy which helps to optimise functional outcome.
All surgery at the National Tongue Tie Centre is performed with a CO2 Laser, the optimal tool for soft tissue surgery.
