Lingual Frenectomy Bakirkoy

Lingual frenulum is a structure that normally located between the normally floor of the mouth with the tongue. If it become short and thick as congenital oral anomaly it is called as Tongue tie or Ankyloglossia. This structure can be varying degrees of shortness and thickness. It may range in thin short mucosal membrane to thick fibrotic band. Ankyloglossia can affect the feeding, speech and oral hygiene. The symptoms of tongue-tie can include that: - Acting irritable or fussy, even after feeding- Difficulty creating or keeping suction on the nipple. The infant may become tired in 1 or 2 minutes, or fall asleep before eating enough.- Poor weight gain or weight loss- Problems latching onto the nipple. The infant may just chew on the nipple instead.- Halitosis (bad breath) may be present, due to caries and accumulated food debris. Difficulties can include creating sounds that need the tongue or tongue tip to (source: Tongue-tie | Better Health Channel): - touch the roof of the mouth, to pronounce sounds such as ‘t, d, n, l, s, z’ - arch off the floor of the mouth, to pronounce sounds such as ‘r’. Structural changes on tongue may occur over time ??such as: - Heart-shaped tongue tip- Square or round tongue tip Most breastfeeding problems can be managed easily and the mother has received at least 2 to 3 days of support from a breastfeeding (lactation) specialist. Tongue tie surgery (sometimes referred to as "frenectomy", "frenulectomy", "frenotomy" or "frenuloplasty") can be performed easily in a few months old babies with office conditions. Surgery for more severe cases and greater babies is done in a hospital operating room. A general anaesthesia can be preferred aspecially after 6 months of age. A surgical procedure called a z-plasty closure may be needed to prevent scar tissue from forming. Electrocautery, laser, thermal welding tecnology and cold knife technique can

Rhinoplasty or nose job is a surgical prcedure to correcting and reconstructing with restoring the functions of the nose. The main objective of rhinoplasty is creating a functional, aesthetic and facially proportionate nose. Rhinoplasty can be performed using general or local anesthesia. It is usually done as an outpatient procedure but sometimes requires one day staying in the hospital. Two methods used for rhinoplasty: 1 - closed rhinoplasty2 - open rhinoplasty In the closed technique rhinoplasty, postoperative edema is expected to be less because of less tissue trauma, anatomical structures evaluation is more difficult from the open technique. In the open technique rhinoplasty, nasal skin is dissected, the nasal cartilages visible, anatomical structures are more easily seen. The skin of the nose is separated from the nasal bone and cartilages. The surgeons experience and expertise is important other factor in the selection of the technique. Often surgery takes between 1-3 hours. postoperative nasal Silicone splints, absorbable buffer is placed in the nose; bandages and external splints are placed out of the nose. We are performing rhinoplasty surgeries in high-quality, international hospitals which are located at Istanbul. We can perform all nasal surgeries (nasal tip surgery, nasal tip upgrading, septoplasty, turbinate radiofrequency operations ... etc.) together nose esthetic operation. surgeries can make in hospitals which close to spectacular coastal views, historic buildings, natural regional foods and touristic facilities. We use to minimally invasive techniques thus the time that you prefer for the treatment and healing process can be use for the holidays and pastime. Many patients can go to shopping malls one day after surgery.

The nasal septum separates the nasal cavity into the two nostrils and it contain the bone and cartilage. The cartilage is called the quadrangular cartilage and the bones comprising the septum include the maxillary crest, vomer and the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid.Nasal septum deviation (deviated nasal septum) is defined as displacement of the nasal septum. It is an abnormal condition in which the top of the cartilaginous ridge leans to the left or the right, causing obstruction of the affected nasal passage. It, can lead to contraction of the air passages of the nose. Although at different levels of septum daviations are available in many people. Most septal deviations result in no symptoms. Some septal deformities, however, may cause the following signs and symptoms: - infections of the sinus- sleep apnea, snoring- repetitive sneezing- facial pain- nosebleeds- difficulty with breathing-mild to severe loss of the ability to smell A simple majority is sufficient for diagnosis of ear, nose and throat examination. Endoscopic examination and computed tomography allows for a more detailed assessment. Medical treatment (such as such as decongestants, antihistamines, and nasal spray) relieves symptoms, but does not correct the underlying condition. Non-medical relief can also be obtained using nasal strips. A cure to symptoms related to septal deviations is available in the form of a minor surgical procedure known as a septoplasty or submucous resection (SMR). The septoplasty operation is performed quickly (lasts roughly 1 hour) and does not result in any cosmetic alteration or external scars. Recovery from the procedure may take anywhere from 2 days to 4 weeks to heal completely.
