[Hypertrophy of the inferior labial frenum].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2004
A too short superior labial frenum is quite normal in babies and little children. Usually, the strong frenum disappears at twelve years of age. Before considering surgical intervention beyond this age, one should exclude the presence of a tooth size or arch length discrepancy, a mesiodens or a severe dysgnathia.

Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985), 1991
Superior labial frena obtained from cadavers or frenectomies were examined histologically. The frena were covered by stratified squamous nonkeratotic, orthokeratotic, or parakeratotic epithelia, depending upon the gingival extent of the frenum. In addition to the normal components of dense, irregular, collagenous connective tissue, almost all frena ...
