AnswerIt is called the upper labial frenulum.
It is found at the midline inside the upper lip. It is a flap of mucosa and connective tissue that holds the teeth close to the teeth. When there is an overgrowth and becomes large, it can pass between the two front upper teeth and cause a diastema.
The superior labial frenulum is the connective tissue that attaches the upper lip to the gum above the front teeth. It helps to stabilize the upper lip and allows for normal movement of the lip during activities such as talking and eating. If it is too tight or thick, it can sometimes cause issues with speech or oral health and may require a frenectomy procedure for correction.
That connector is called a labial frenulum. In some children, the frenulum is elongated and attached all the way down their gums between their two front teeth. This can cause some problems, such as an inability to breastfeed, speech delays, or gapping of the front teeth. This can be corrected, if necessary, by a doctor cutting it in a procedure called a frenectomy.
Call the pediatrician.
A frenum is a male genital piercing. Basically a frenum piercing is a form of a frenulum piercing. So is a fourchette.But really a frenulum piercing is an oral piercing. Frenulum can be either an upper frenulum(smiley), lower frenulum (frowney), or even a tongue web piercing. A frenulum is a fold/piece of tissue that restricts the movement of an organ.
It depends on how and why it was severed. If it was a result of accidental trauma, it probably will grow back unless severe damage was done. If it was the result of surgery designed to help close a gap between the two upper front teeth, it should not grow back - unless the necessary orthodontics were not performed to close the gap. In that case, the frenum might grow back over time.
The "smiley" is a piercing located in the upper lip frenulum. It's basically the little web between your upper lip and gums. The size ranges from person to person, so it is possible that not everyone is suitable for this type of piercing.Inside the top lip between the lip and top gum in the frenial web.
The frenum or frenulum linguae is the band of tissue beneath the tongue. The frenulum labii superioris is the band of tissue behind your upper lip. Neither have anything to do with the gap between your central incisors, which is called diastema or gap-tooth. The gap is probably genetic in most cases.
