Frenectomy And Fiber Release Procedures Near You

Support Gum Health and Help Maintain Tooth Position

Why Frenectomy And Fiber Release Procedures Matter

Frenectomy procedures remove unfavorable soft tissue and muscle attachments from around the teeth. Fiber release procedures (fiberotomies) release connective tissue attachments from around teeth to help keep teeth from moving after orthodontic treatment. These treatments support healthier tissue function and long-term stability.
