Precision Care for
Little Ones

At Arvada Dental Excellence, our commitment to comfort, precision, and state-of-the-art technology extends to our youngest patients. We understand that issues like tongue-tie and lip-tie are more than just anatomical restrictions, they can profoundly affect a child’s ability to feed, speak, and thrive.

Dr. Ganong and our team offer specialized care to diagnose and treat these conditions with the excellence and compassion your family deserves.

The Importance of Early Intervention

When a newborn struggles with nursing or an older child exhibits speech impediments, the cause may be a restricted frenulum. For infants, a timely infant frenectomy can be life-changing, alleviating feeding difficulties almost immediately.

The procedure involves carefully releasing the tight band of tissue under the tongue or lip, restoring full range of motion. We approach these procedures with minimal invasiveness, ensuring the process is as quick and comfortable as possible for both child and parent.

Our Advanced Approach to Pediatric Frenectomy

Choosing an experienced frenectomy surgery dentist is critical for successful, stress-free outcomes. We utilize advanced laser technology for a gentle, virtually bloodless, and often stitch-free pediatric frenectomy.

This minimally invasive laser technique allows us to achieve superior precision with maximum comfort. The result is a procedure with minimal recovery time, enabling your child to return to normal function faster. The same high standard of care and technological precision we apply to complex services like Yomi robot-guided implants is brought to every specialized procedure we perform, guaranteeing outstanding results for your family. We are dedicated to providing the definitive solution that restores confidence and function from the very start.

Compassionate Care for the Whole Family

Rooted in discipline, service, and putting others first, our team treats every patient like family, not just another appointment. From routine care to advanced, specialized treatments like frenectomies, Arvada Dental Excellence is your trusted partner for exceptional, honest, and pressure-free care for your child’s lifelong oral health.

frequently asked questions
(FAQs)

What is a frenectomy?

A frenectomy is a simple and fast procedure to correct a “tie”—a restrictive band of tissue (frenulum) that limits the movement of the tongue (tongue-tie) or the lip (lip-tie).

Is the procedure painful for my child?

We prioritize your child’s comfort. Using advanced techniques, often including laser technology, the procedure is quick and precise. We use effective methods to ensure minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, leading to a typically very fast and easy recovery.

When should I consult a lip tie dentist?

If your infant has trouble latching, seems unhappy while feeding, or if your older child has noticeable difficulty with speech or struggles to properly clean under their lip, a consultation with our experienced team is highly recommended to assess for a restriction.
