Use of 980nm Diode laser for lingual frenectomy: A case report
Malik Waqas Javied, Zafar Quratul-Ain
A frenum is a soft tissue attachment of the labial, buccal and lingual mucosa to the jaw bones. Abnormalities in development of this soft tissue fold may present as a very short lingual frenum limiting the mobility of the tongue. This condition is termed as ankyloglossia or tongue tie. The surgical technique is used to reposition the frenum and correct the functional impairments caused by ankyloglossia. This case report presents a 30 years old male patient with impairment of speech due to the short lingual frenum. 980 nm diode laser was used for frenectomy which showed minimal pain and healing with no complications. Surgical procedures like frenectomy and biopsy of oral lesions can be effectively carried out using Diode laser.
