Orthodontic surgeries |
|
Some surgeries are useful and even necessary for successful orthodontic treatment.

Lingual frenectomyThe frenectomy can also be performed at the lingual brake if the tip of the tongue is attached too firmly to the gum. The lingual frenectomy frees the tongue so it can move more freely. It is indicated, among other things, to help improve young children’s speech and to prevent the loss of lower incisors. |
ExtractionExtraction of permanent teeth may be required to align other teeth if lack of space is important. Some people also have excess teeth (extra teeth) that will need to be extracted to prevent damage or displacement of the permanent teeth. |
