No Surgery, No Sutures, Only Smiles

Posted on: February 24th, 2021 | Posted in Uncategorized

Traditional gum grafting to correct issues of gum recession can be a painful procedure for many. As time goes on and periodontal issues increase, the potential for discomfort during a procedure only grows.

The Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST) is a minimally invasive treatment that can reverse gum recession without the need of grafts. One of the main benefits of this procedure is that a patient can have as many teeth treated in a single sitting as desired.

There are limitations with traditional gum grafting techniques, and it can sometimes take more than a year to complete an entire mouth. However, PST has significantly less pain and recovery time than regular gum grafting.

If you are worried about the gingival recession or are otherwise suffering from periodontal issues, contact us today.
