How long is it supposed to it hurt after a frenectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not too long: Usually there is pain like a canker sore in the mouth for 1 to 10 days. Using some dental numbing gel on the area can help. Babies can use some infant tylenol (acetaminophen) and toddlers and above can use children's Motrin for pain as well. The diet doesn't have to be restricted after the procedure. Good luck!
