Dr. Mark McCawley Shows Pinhole Receding Gums Treatment On Fox News Miami

Ft. Lauderdale, FL - Dr. Mark McCawley uses the Pinhole Surgical Technique® to treat a 30 year-old woman’s receding gums in less than an hour in this story on Fox 7 News Miami. “I believe the Pinhole gum treatment to be the best alternative to conventional gum grafting for most patients,” says Dr. McCawley, of the McCawley Center For Laser Periodontics and Implants in Ft. Lauderdale. Dr. John Chao, inventor of the Pinhole Surgical Technique® appears in the story and says that to date, he has personally trained nearly 1,000 doctors from around the world in the minimally invasive procedure, also known as Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™.
“My patient’s receding gums were brought into proper position without using scalpels or sutures,” says Dr. McCawley. “Instead, a few small pinholes, about the size of a ballpoint pen tip were made in her gums near the areas of recession. Using a specially designed small dental instrument, her gums were brought down to improve root coverage in a process taking just minutes per tooth. Small strips of collagen were placed to help stabilize the gums, and the procedure was done. The pinholes heal and disappear quickly, often overnight.”
“Receding gums are unattractive and can lead to tooth sensitivity and even eventual tooth loss,” says Dr. McCawley. “Causes include improper tooth brushing, the aging process and gum disease. In some cases, gum recession may develop after wearing braces. I believe the Pinhole Surgical Technique® is the best alternative to conventional gum grafting for most patients,” says Dr. McCawley.
