The Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST)™

 


I

f you have been diagnosed with receding gums or are showing signs of gum recession, Dr. Davis may recommend the Pinhole Surgical Technique PST™ to restore your beautiful smile. In fact, Dr. Davis was the first dental professional in Naples, FL to become certified to perform the technique. This is an incision-free procedure that involves making a very small hole and using special instruments to loosen the gum tissue and move it over the areas with gum recession. Many patients that undergo this procedure are surprised how simple and minimally invasive the entire process is, and PST™ may be just what you need to take care of receding gums and restore your smile.
 

 

 

Treating Gum Recession with the Pinhole Surgical Technique

The Pinhole Surgical Technique PST™ was invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S. and has been deemed a ‘breakthrough’ technique for gum recession and treatment options for receding gums.

Gum recession is just one of the signs of gum disease, but can also be caused by using the wrong tooth brushing technique or as a side effect of certain medications that increase the risk of periodontal disease. Traditional gum surgery and some orthodontic treatments can also cause gum recession because healthy tissue has to be removed to eradicate the infection. The Pinhole Surgical Technique PST™ may be an attractive alternative to gum grafting because it is a non-invasive procedure. Unlike gum grafting procedures, there is no cutting of the gum tissue involved.
