CONTRAINDICATIONS OF INFANT FRENECTOMY: Preparing for Highest Probability Functional Gains

When NOT to do a tie release.

A Presentation of key contraindications that should give a surgeon pause.

In this exclusive webinar, Dr. Shervin Yazdi shares ethical considerations based on clinical insights on the contraindications of infant frenectomy — shedding light on when infant frenectomy procedure is not indicated, and why choosing not to act can sometimes be the most responsible decision. “Just because we can doesn’t mean we should — clinical judgment, not parental anxiety, nor professional trends, must guide our hands.”

Whether you’re a provider, a parent, or a health advocate, this presentation will leave you with a deeper understanding of what balanced expertise needs to look like: the wisdom to say no, when appropriate, in preparing the infant patient for highest probability functional gains.
