Clinical Application
Designed for controlled elevation and protection of the lingual frenulum during frenotomy and frenectomy procedures. The probe provides a stable platform beneath the tissue, improving visualization and allowing a precise division with scissors or scalpel while minimizing the risk of inadvertent injury to the tongue, lingual veins, or salivary ducts. Suitable for use in neonatal, pediatric and adult oral procedures in ambulatory clinics, pediatric offices, dental settings, and outpatient surgical suites.
Design & Configuration
The slim, 11.5 cm shaft places the probe tip beneath the frenulum to lift and guard subadjacent structures during tissue release. The blunt, smooth probe tip offers tactile feedback and atraumatic retraction, enabling the operator to define the plane of dissection and to shield deeper tissues while performing a controlled cut. The hand-held form factor supports single-operator technique in small oral cavities common in infants and children.
