Tongue Tie Removal with Radiofrequency Cautery – A Modern Solution for a Rare Problem​

What is Tongue Tie (Ankyloglossia)?

Tongue tie, medically known as ankyloglossia, is a condition where the thin band of tissue (lingual frenulum) under the tongue is shorter or tighter than normal. This can restrict the tongue’s movement, leading to difficulties in speaking, eating, breastfeeding (in infants), and oral hygiene.

In children and adults, tongue tie can affect speech clarity, cause discomfort while swallowing, and even impact self-confidence in social situations.

Our Modern Approach: Radiofrequency Cautery

At Face Dental International Clinic, Nigdi, we are proud to offer a minimally invasive and highly effective technique for tongue tie release—Radiofrequency Cautery.

Unlike traditional surgical methods, radiofrequency cautery provides several advantages:

• ✅ Minimized bleeding

• ✅ Reduced discomfort

• ✅ Faster healing time

• ✅ Improved precision

• ✅ No need for stitches in most cases

Case Highlight: A Smooth and Successful Tongue Tie Release
