How long is the appointment?

Your face-to-face appointment for assessment and frenulotomy will be approximately 60 minutes long.  A full history is taking upon booking online. This will optimise your appointment time whilst reducing the risks of face-to-face contact.




How do I prepare for my appointment ?

You will be sent an information leaflet by email prior to your appointment with everything covered. We will also be able to talk on the phone prior to your appointment if you wish to answer any queries you have, and discuss risks, benefits and alternatives.

How soon can I feed my baby?

Ideally, your baby will feed immediately after the division procedure to provide comfort, pain relief and minimise any bleeding. In general, the division procedure itself takes less than ten seconds.

What happens after my appointment?

You will be supported to feed your baby and have any questions answered. Information to optimise post-procedure feeding and wound healing will be given and realistic expectations discussed. If you have opted for ongoing support, this will be arranged. Your feedback will be requested and is greatly valued.

Is a division always necessary?

No. The aim is always to find a non-surgical solution for restrictive lingual frenulum and/or feeding issues. Sometimes the best management may be an expectant approach, where watching and waiting for a few days or a few weeks is most appropriate. You will be supported to find the best option for your individual circumstances. If you book for assessment and frenulotomy and no surgical division is needed, you will only be charged the assessment fee.
