“…Generally, ankyloglossia is detected at a young age due to dysphagia, masticatory difficulty, speech disorder, or at a regular checkup. 1415 In this study, 19 of the 27 patients (70.4%) were at our department by the time they reached school age (6 years or younger). The maxillary labial frenulum is connected to the incisive papilla during the early embryonic period.…”

Aim To suggest regarding the timing of oral surgery and laser treatment for frenulum abnormalities in the pediatric population.Materials and methods We investigated the sex, age, frenulum site, reason for consultation, treatment method, and prognosis of 35 patients aged 15 years or younger and who were examined at our hospital for the chief complaint of frenulum abnormality.Results A total of 21 (mean age, 6.0 years) of the 35 patients underwent frenectomy using a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser. Of these, 7 patients (mean age, 2.8 years) underwent the procedure with general anesthesia and 14 patients (mean age, 7.6 years) underwent the procedure with local anesthesia. The surgical site was the lingual frenulum in 15 patients and the maxillary labial frenulum in 6 patients. No adverse events were intraoperatively reported in any of the patients, and the procedure was quickly and safely performed. The mean postoperative follow-up period was 4.6 months, and readhesion was noted in one patient (4.8%). The most common reason cited for not undergoing frenectomy in the 14 patients (mean age, 3.4 years) was the young age of the child.Conclusion Retrospective study of pediatric patients with frenulum abnormalities demonstrated the usefulness of the CO2 laser in performing frenectomy and offered suggestions regarding the timing of this procedure.Clinical significance Frenectomy performed using a CO2 laser for pediatric patients is a useful, simple, and safe treatment method.How to cite this article Komori S, Matsumoto K, Matsuo K, Suzuki H, Komori T.

Ankyloglossia or tongue-tie is a singularly congenital case qualified by a specific no elastic and dense frenum within lingual muscle. Also it’s occurs when there is an union of the tongue’s body to the mouth’s floor, reducing her motion [1]. Its prevalence ranged of 0.02% to 12%. Lack of unified consensus may explain these rates changing on prevalence of ankyloglossia [2]. A higher incidence revealed in studies exploring neonates in comparison to those realized in other population was revealed by Reddy et al. 2014 [3]. The authors suggested the resolution of beginner variants of ankyloglossia during development justifying the age related difference of prevalence [4].

“…Ankyloglossia is a congenital oral pathology with a prevalence of 3.2% to 4.8% -which are, nonetheless, underestimated data because of the absence of specific diagnosis and symptomatology 6 . Other authors mention a prevalence between 0.1% and 10.7%, pointing out that such variation is due to nonuniform definition and classification 7 .…”

Frenotomy: from assessment to surgical intervention

The objective of this study was to demonstrate that frenotomy can help improve breastfeeding, tongue movement, and the mother’s comfort, if the assessment criteria are respected and the infant’s function and age are observed. Frenotomy was performed on two babies with breastfeeding difficulties who came to CEPAE - Center for Research and Dental Care, in 2018, as part of the course on Early Childhood Interdisciplinary Preventive Care at a Dental School. After anamnesis and clinical examination, the lingual frenulum assessment protocol for babies was applied. The necessary frenotomies were performed with topical anesthesia, scissors, and groove director. The babies were reassessed in follow-up visits 7 days after the procedure. The babies had gained weight and the mothers had found greater comfort and easiness when breastfeeding, after the procedure. It is concluded that the less time it takes from ankyloglossia diagnosis to intervention, the easier it is to resume breastfeeding. Also, the identification of ankyloglossia is more effective, and its intervention more efficient, through an interdisciplinary assessment.
