Afrenum is a mucous membrane fold that attaches the lipand the cheek to the alveolar mucosa, the gingiva, and theunderlying periosteum. It has no specific function. Sometimes, the maxillary frenum maypresent aesthetic problems or compromise the treatment outcome in the midline diastema cases, thus causing a recurrenceafter the treatment. An abnormal frenum is the source of concern for dentists and the management of such an aberrantfrenum is accomplished by performing a frenectomyi.e surgical excision of maxillary frenum. The present article mentions about the treatment of a papillary penetrating frenum using the conventional frenectomy technique with the one year follow up.
