Frenectomy

The frenum is a piece of tissue that runs between the upper or lower two front teeth and the lip. In certain cases this frenum becomes a problem of being too low in its attachment and/or too thick. If left alone, it can cause or help lead to, separation of the two front teeth. It may also help in causing gum recession in this area as well. If this frenum becomes a problem it must be removed or repositioned. This is also done many times prior to or after orthodontic tooth movement.
