Frenectomy is a procedure
where we cut either
00:00:08.467 --> 00:00:12.667
if a person comes in with a tongue
or lip tie, is a common term for it.
00:00:13.067 --> 00:00:17.720
We use the Soleil laser
to vaporize that tissue, basically.
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:20.800
No sutures are involved,
minimal bleeding is involved,
00:00:21.167 --> 00:00:25.933
and it helps, for instance,
infants with nursing difficulties,
00:00:26.200 --> 00:00:31.233
and also individuals that might have
a tongue-tie and speech difficulties.
00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:35.400
Because the laser energy is so precise,
it cuts quickly.
00:00:35.467 --> 00:00:38.795
Again, there's minimal bleeding,
reduced pain,
00:00:38.995 --> 00:00:41.533
and the healing is proving to be quicker.
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:45.667
As long as they're doing
the stretching exercises to maintain
00:00:45.867 --> 00:00:50.567
the original surgical architecture,
can have great results.
