Pre- and post-operative therapy can make all the difference in a successful frenectomy outcome 👇
A frenectomy isn’t just a quick procedure—it’s part of a bigger journey toward better function. Without proper preparation and follow-up, the body often falls back into old habits, limiting results.
✨ Before the procedure:
Pre-op therapy helps train the muscles, improve mobility, and prepare the tongue and oral tissues for optimal healing. Think of it as setting the foundation so the release can actually “stick.”
✨ After the procedure:
Post-op therapy is where the magic really happens. Guided exercises help prevent reattachment, improve strength and coordination, and support new, healthy movement patterns for breathing, feeding, and speech.
Skipping therapy can lead to incomplete results or the need for revision—something we always want to avoid.
A frenectomy is not just about releasing tissue—it’s about restoring function. And therapy is the key 🔑
