Another name for a lingual frenectomy is the removal of tongue-ties (ankyloglossia). This procedure targets the connective tissue behind the tongue. It is frequently done on newborns to help with nursing or on toddlers or elderly patients who require surgery to help with speech problems brought on by the frenulum’s restricted movement.
