A member asked:
Are there nerves or tendons that cannot be cut during a lingual frenectomy? how far back can the lingual frenelum be cut without issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lingual frenectomy: Cutting nerves or tendons is unlikely during the surgical procedure known as a lingual frenectomy if done by a skilled surgeon. Any surgery has risks but that procedure is generally simple and with minimal risks. Discuss with your own surgeon.
