If your child or baby has difficulty with feeding, speech, or oral movement, a tongue tie may be the cause. At our dental clinic in Kepong, we offer laser tongue tie release—a quick, gentle, and minimally invasive procedure suitable for infants, children, and even adults.
A tongue tie occurs when the lingual frenulum (the tissue connecting the underside of the tongue to the floor of the mouth) is too short or tight, restricting tongue movement. This can lead to issues with:
Compared to scissors or scalpel techniques, laser treatment offers higher precision and reduces trauma to the surrounding tissue. It also minimizes the risk of infection and improves comfort during recovery.
Our experienced dental team will first assess the severity of the tongue tie. If needed, we perform the laser frenectomy using a soft tissue dental laser. The process is quick, and most patients can resume normal activity shortly after the procedure.
We also provide guidance on aftercare, including oral exercises or speech therapy referrals (if needed), to ensure long-term success and function.
Don't let a tongue tie affect your or your child's quality of life. Book a consultation today with our team in Kepong to learn more about laser tongue tie treatment.
