“Pinhole Plastic Gum Surgery™ is now available to correct unsightly receding gums. This minimally invasive procedure adds the ‘final touch’ for a younger, more attractive look for men and women,” says says dentist and inventor Dr. John Chao of Alhambra Dental.
“People may take care of their health and maintain their appearance, but when looking in the mirror something may seem ‘off’ when they smile,” says Dr. Chao. “Many people have receding gums but don’t realize how their appearance can be affected by this common condition. Gum recession can make a person look older and less attractive, and is often a warning sign of gum disease.”
"While many people take advantage of the benefits of Botox, facial fillers and cosmetic surgery, the subtle but noticeable effect of receding gums is often overlooked," says Dr. Chao.
To address this, Dr. Chao has developed Pinhole Plastic Gum Surgery™, a minimally invasive technique to reverse gum recession and improve the aesthetics of a person’s smile. The procedure is performed through tiny “pinholes” made in the gums that disappear in a matter of days, leaving a perfect smile that enhances a person’s overall look. “No cutting or stitches are required and downtime is minimal,” says Dr. Chao.
How Pinhole Plastic Gum Surgery™ is done:
The gums are numbed with a local anesthetic. Tiny entry points (about the size of a ballpoint pen tip) are made in the gum above the tooth or teeth to be treated.
Special dental instruments designed by Dr. Chao are inserted into the entry points and moved to free the gum tissue and the gums are guided down to the correct position.
Tiny collagen strips are passed through the entry points and placed under the gums, which help to keep the tissue in place as new tissue is formed. The small entry points heal quickly and are virtually undetectable in a day or two.
Dr. Chao is launching a public awareness campaign for Pinhole Plastic Gum Surgery™, showcasing his actual patients and their results.
Dr. John Chao has trained about 4,000 dentists from around the world in the revolutionary Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation® procedure for receding gums. Pinhole Plastic Gum Surgery™ is the latest version of the Pinhole® procedure, optimized for the aesthetic benefits of healthy gums.
