Tongue-Tie Release (Frenectomy) for Kids in DHA Phase 4, Lahore
Helping Babies Feed and Kids Speak.
A "tongue-tie" (Ankyloglossia) is a common condition where the strip of skin under the tongue is too short or tight. At Dental Services in Sector DD, we perform quick, safe Frenectomies for infants and children to solve feeding difficulties and speech delays.
Why DHA Parents Choose Us
We work closely with Lactation Consultants and Speech Therapists in Lahore. Whether you have a newborn struggling to latch or a 5-year-old with a lisp, our team uses laser technology for a procedure that is virtually bloodless and heals rapidly.
Signs of a Tongue/Lip Tie
- Babies: Poor latch, clicking sounds while nursing, slow weight gain, causing pain to the mother.
- Toddlers/Kids: Difficulty lifting the tongue to the roof of the mouth, trouble pronouncing 'R', 'S', 'L', or 'TH', or a gap between the bottom front teeth.
The Procedure
- Evaluation: We lift the tongue/lip to check the range of motion.
- Numbing: We apply a strong numbing jelly (no needle usually needed for babies).
- Release: We use a laser or sterile scissors to snip the tight tissue. It takes less than a minute.
- Immediate Relief: Babies can often nurse immediately afterward.
What Our Parents Are Saying
"My baby was having such a hard time feeding. We came to Dental Services for a release. The doctor was so gentle, and the difference in feeding was instant. I'm so relieved." — Mrs. Mariam, DHA Phase 6
FAQs About Kids Frenectomy
Does it hurt the baby?
Babies may cry for a minute during the hold, but they settle down almost immediately once picked up. The discomfort is minimal.
Will they need stitches?
Usually not. The laser cauterizes the wound instantly.
Are there exercises to do after?
Yes. We will teach you simple "stretches" to do with your finger to ensure the tissue doesn't heal back tight.
