We Performed Bloodless Lingual Frenectomy Again

Bloodless Tongue Tie Operation With Thermal Welding System


In the above patient, there were complaints of decay formation on the inner surfaces of the lower teeth, notching when fully raised at the tongue end, and a decrease in speech clarity when speaking rapidly. In order to reduce the possibility of re-adhesion after the classical " tongue tie operation"  which was completed only by incision; the triangular shaped tongue tie tissue (frenulum) removal is performed. We performed this procedure in the hospital operating room under local anesthesia with thermal welding device. The incision line  was sutured in the vertical plane of mutual wound edges so that the patient was able to see the result of the procedure directly and to avoid as far as possible the reclosing of the tongue tie in the horizontal plane. The above and below photos have sub-lingual views before and after the transaction. The tip of the tongue looks more pointed after the procedure (because the diamond-shaped wound site is planted in the vertical plane).
