Gum recession is very evident in many adults. In the past as dentists, we use to look at gum recession and tell you, Stop brushing so hard. Most gum recession is not caused from over brushing, it’s usually caused from a malocclusion. The way your teeth come together, when they’re angled and they hit on a certain angle, your gums start to recede. In past we just kinda watched it because it wasn’t a good procedure to fix it. We used to have to take the tissue from the palate of your mouth and cut your gum, and put a whole bunch of stitches. Now we have a technique invented by Dr. Chao in California, it’s called Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation. I’m one of 10 to 15 Dentists in Michigan who can do it. It’s a wonderful Pinhole Procedure where there’s no scalpel, no stitches, very minimal healing and within one appointment you get your gums back to where they should be.
Renew Your Gums With Leading-Edge Techniques
Your gums play a crucial role in both the health and appearance of your smile. When gum tissue begins to recede, it not only affects how your smile looks but can also expose tooth roots and increase your risk for sensitivity and decay.
At North Oaks Dental, your dentist offers the latest methods to restore your gums, including the innovative Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique. This modern option gives you a comfortable, effective alternative to traditional grafting.
Here are some of the many benefits you can expect:
- Minimally Invasive – The Pinhole technique uses your own healthy gum tissue. Instead of removing tissue from another part of your mouth or relying on donor grafts, your dentist gently repositions the gums you already have. This means less discomfort and fewer complications.
- Efficient Treatment – In about an hour, Dr. Daboul can treat your entire gumline. That’s a significant improvement over standard grafting procedures, which often take several hours. You’ll leave the office with a healthier-looking smile in far less time.
- Remarkably Simple – Traditional gum surgery requires cutting and stitches. By contrast, the Pinhole method relies on a tiny entry point, through which your dentist carefully guides your gum tissue into place. There’s no scalpel, no sutures, and no complicated aftercare.
- Quick Recovery – Because the treatment causes so little disruption to your tissue, healing is typically fast and comfortable. You’ll be able to eat your favorite foods and continue your usual brushing and flossing routine right away.
To make sure you feel at ease, your dentist will numb the area completely with local anesthesia. If you’d like additional relaxation, sedation dentistry is also available. Options include laughing gas, oral sedation, and IV sedation, so you can choose the level of comfort that works best for you.
