It all depends on how the frenulum has grown. It also depends on where it is located in your mouth. If it's minor, the surgury can take no more than 5 to 10 minutes, but is it's more severe, the surgury can possably take up to over 10 minutes.

Procedure of a frenectomy?

A frenectomy is a simple procedure that is done in the dental office using local anaesthesia. A hemostat is clamped to the frenum and using a scalpel, the tissue is cut away from the top and bottom of the hemostat. After removal of the tissue, the remaining tissue are sutured to avoid reforming a new frenum.
