我们介绍了三例通过激光辅助骨折切除术和术后口腔肌功能锻炼来治疗小儿舌带(强直)的病例。远胸,以限制性舌系带为特征,对舌头运动提出了挑战,传统上是通过手术干预来治疗的。激光技术,特别是二极管激光器,由于出血减少,在儿科病例中表现出了希望,最小的不适和更快的恢复。该病例系列介绍了三种患者接受激光辅助骨折切除术的情况,显示改善的舌头功能和言语结果。全面的方法包括遵守安全协议,细致的手术技术和术后锻炼的整合。结果表明,言语和舌头活动显著改善,没有报告的疼痛或并发症。这项研究强调了疗效,结合激光和运动策略的安全性和以患者为中心的性质,以解决儿科牙科的强直症,强调需要进一步研究和长期随访研究,以验证其持续有效性。
We present three cases for the management of paediatric tongue tie (ankyloglossia) through laser-assisted frenectomy and postoperative oral myofunctional exercises. Ankyloglossia, characterised by a restricted lingual frenulum, poses challenges in tongue movement and is traditionally treated with surgical interventions. Laser technology, particularly diode lasers, has shown promise in paediatric cases due to reduced bleeding, minimal discomfort and faster recovery. The case series presents three instances where patients underwent laser-assisted frenectomy, demonstrating improved tongue function and speech outcomes. The comprehensive approach includes adherence to safety protocols, meticulous surgical techniques and the integration of postoperative exercises. Results indicate significant improvement in speech and tongue mobility, with no reported pain or complications. The study underscores the efficacy, safety and patient-centric nature of the combined laser and exercise strategy in addressing ankyloglossia in paediatric dentistry, emphasising the need for further research and long-term follow-up studies to validate its sustained effectiveness.
