www.pinholegumr... - Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™ is the minimally invasive alternative to conventional gum grafting surgery for receding gums. In this TV news story shown on ABC News in Huntsville, AL Dr. John Chao shows how he treated an 18 year-old student who developed gum recession after wearing braces. More common causes of gum recession include improper brushing or gum disease, which can affect people at any age, says Dr. Chao. The procedure, also known as the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique® and the specialized instruments used were invented and are patented by Dr. Chao, who is training doctors coming from around the world at the "Pinhole Academy", with over 1,500 doctors trained to date. "Because Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™ does not require incisions or sutures, patients have a more comfortable treatment with minimal downtime," says Dr. Chao.
One or more small pinholes are made in the gums, then the doctor uses specially designed dental tools which are placed through the pinholes and manipulated to loosen the gums. The tissues are guided down to improve root coverage at the receded areas. Small strips of collagen, similar to the material used for collagen injections are inserted through the pinholes to stabilize the gums. “Patients can return to normal activities almost immediately with virtually no pain in most cases.
The procedure typically requires a single in-office visit and most patients will see a noticeable cosmetic improvement immediately following the procedure," says Dr. Chao. Call (888) 603-2953 for more information or for a referral to a local provider. Visit www.pinholesur...
