What is gum recession?<\/h3>\n
Gum recession<\/a> refers to the loss of gum tissue along the gumline. This can occur as a result of periodontal disease (gingivitis, periodontitis, advanced periodontitis), the natural aging process, or abrasive habits when it comes to brushing the teeth. The Pinhole Surgical Technique can repair gum recession instantly.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Why should gum recession be taken seriously?<\/h3>\n
When gum recession occurs, the root structure of the tooth becomes exposed. This means that tooth decay and other problems can affect the teeth along the gumline and beneath it. Since healthy gums are essential for a healthy mouth, getting gum recession treated is important for lasting dental wellness.<\/div>\n

What is the Chao Pinhole \u00ae Surgical Technique (PST)?<\/h3>\n
The Chao Pinhole \u00ae Surgical Technique is a minimally invasive option for treating gum recession. Unlike traditional grafting techniques, PST<\/div>\n
is incision and suture free.\u00a0 All of the tools and techniques used to perform the PST were created by Dr. John Chao.\u00a0 VIPS Periodontist, Dr. Nauman Quamar, was trained personally by Dr. Chao in this revolutionary technique.<\/p>\n
\"pst

Correcting Gum Recession With Pinhole Surgical Technique<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How Does PST Differ From Traditional Grafting?<\/h3>\n
Traditional gum recession treatments involve the use of donor tissue or soft tissue grafts in order to rebuild the gumline. This soft tissue would be sutured in place and would join with existing gum tissue as it healed.\u00a0 While this traditional grafting treatment is effective, comparable results with better patient experience can be achieved through PST.<\/div>\n
\n
\"Conventional

Conventional Gum Grafting<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How is PST performed?<\/h3>\n
During the PST procedure, a needle is used to make a small hole in the patient\u2019s existing gum tissue. Through this pinhole, special instruments are used to gently loosen the gum tissue.\u00a0 These tools help expand and slide the gumline to cover the exposed root structure. There are no grafts, no sutures, and no incisions needed with the Pinhole Surgical Technique.\u00a0 It simply involves the adjustment of the existing tissue.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

What are the benefits of PST?<\/h3>\n
The benefits of the Pinhole procedure are many:<\/div>\n
\u2022 Less discomfort for the patient after treatment<\/div>\n
\u2022 Faster recovery for the patient than traditional grafting<\/div>\n
\u2022 No need for uncomfortable sutures<\/div>\n
\u2022 No need for scalpels or invasive surgical tools<\/div>\n
\u2022 No need to take donor tissue from the patient\u2019s palate<\/div>\n
\u2022 Excellent, natural-looking, long-lasting result<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
