On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined by Dr. Taher Dhoon for a Surgical Saturday deep dive into one of the most underrated clinical procedures in dentistry: frenectomies. As co-founder of the Colorado Surgical Institute, Dr. Dhoon outlines the powerful impact frenectomies can have on both pediatric and adult patients—improving airway, sleep, behavior, and overall development. He shares details about CSI's upcoming hands-on frenectomy course, including patient selection, surgical technique (CO2 and scalpel-based), and the referral relationships it can unlock with myofunctional therapists, pediatricians, and speech pathologists. This episode also explores how frenectomies can open the door to long-term care like ortho, expansion, and even full-arch treatment.
