Lip ligature removal is usually recommended around 6-7 years of age. The labial tether is a soft tissue in the mouth that is located at the front of the mouth, between the upper lip and upper gum and between the lower lip and lower gum. A condition in which the labial tissues are too low in attachment may cause a widening of the gap between the upper incisors. Patients with this condition can usually be improved with a labial ligature removal. Normally, children enter the teething phase after the age of 6 years. If the child has a low labial tie attachment, a labial ligature removal at this time can better prevent a wide gap between the incisors as they erupt and grow. In addition, the child is more compliant and cooperative at this age, which is more conducive to a smooth resection. Patients should try to avoid strong stimulating foods such as too hot, too cold, spicy, etc. after surgery to avoid adverse effects on the healing of the traumatized mouth.
