ABSTRACT
The labial frenum is a band of fibroelastic tissue that originates in the lip and inserts in the attached gingiva at the midline of the maxilla. Labial thick and high attached maxillary frenum is commonly regarded as contributing etiology for maintaining midline diastema and delayed upper jaw development. The management of such an aberrant frenum is treated by performing a frenectomy. The present case report is on maxillary labial frenectomy using the diode laser technique with 1 months of follow up.
