Laser Lip & Tongue Tie Release in Bethany, OK

A More Comfortable Way to Treat Lip and Tongue Ties

Lip and tongue ties can interfere with breastfeeding, speech, swallowing, and long-term oral development. At Bethany Dental Group, we use soft tissue laser technology to perform precise, gentle frenectomies with minimal discomfort and faster healing — no scalpels or stitches required.

Whether you’re a parent seeking care for your child, or an adult struggling with oral restriction or tightness, we offer a compassionate, modern solution right here in Bethany, OK.

What Is a Lip or Tongue Tie?

A lip or tongue tie occurs when the frenulum — the tissue connecting the tongue or upper lip to the mouth — is too short, thick, or tight. This can limit movement and affect daily function.

Common symptoms include:

• Difficulty breastfeeding (infants)
• Poor latch or prolonged feeding
• Speech delays or articulation issues
• Difficulty chewing or swallowing
• Clicking sounds while feeding
• Jaw or facial tension
• Gum recession or orthodontic issues

Laser Frenectomy: Why Choose It?

At Bethany Dental Group, we use advanced laser technology to perform frenectomies quickly, safely, and with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues.

Benefits of laser tie release:

• No cutting or sutures
• Faster healing and less post-op discomfort
• Reduced risk of infection
• Minimal bleeding
• Enhanced precision
• Shorter procedure time (often under 10 minutes)

This makes it an ideal option for infants, children, and adults alike.

Lip & Tongue Tie Treatment for Infants and Children

We regularly work with parents of infants and young children to address feeding, speech, and developmental concerns caused by ties. Dr. Maune and our team take extra care to ensure your child’s comfort and safety throughout the process, working at a pace that respects your family’s needs.

If your pediatrician, lactation consultant, or speech therapist has recommended a frenectomy — or you’re noticing signs of restriction — we’re here to help.
