The oral synechia is a rarely observed change in the oral cavity which is a connective tissue structure adhered between soft or fibrous tissues, connecting the upper jawbone to the lower jawbone, still presenting uncertain etiology. Female patient, six months of age, born with 28 weeks, diagnosed with some systemic changes and also a membrane between the hard palate and the floor of the mouth on the right side. The child was referred for evaluation and confirmed the diagnosis of oral synechia on the right side with possible interference of the structure in sucking and swallowing. After an agreement with the doctor the surgical procedure was performed with the use of injectable local anesthetic and the aid of an active protective stabilization. Concluded that the surgical treatment was successful, because there was an improvement in the sucking and swallowing, bringing benefits to feed the baby.
