Frenectomy in Bethesda
Residents of Bethesda, an affluent Montgomery County community just across the DC line, known for its thriving restaurant scene and the National Institutes of Health, now have convenient access to expert frenectomy care at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in nearby Washington DC. A frenectomy removes or releases a frenum — the small fold of tissue connecting the lips, cheeks, or tongue to the gums — when it is too tight or positioned in a way that causes functional or periodontal problems.
The short 15-minute drive from Bethesda to our Washington DC office is well worth it for the level of specialized frenectomy care our periodontists deliver. A tight or improperly positioned frenum can cause gum recession, contribute to a gap between front teeth, restrict tongue movement (tongue tie), or interfere with denture fit.
