Gum Recession Treatment: The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique
If you notice that you are experiencing gum recession, then it is very important that you contact your dentist or your periodontist to schedule an examination. This is because gum recession is one of the major warning signs that you may be suffering from gum disease. Also, because gum recession occurs so gradually it is often difficult to detect or identify so if you notice it reaching out to your dental professional sooner rather than later would be good. To learn more about gum recession treatment please review the information in the following paragraphs about the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique.
The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique
The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique is a non-invasive procedure that has been developed to treat gum recession. In comparison, to previous gum recession treatments such as gum grafting this procedure is less invasive and more comfortable for the patient to undergo. Also, this decreases the healing time. In addition, because the procedure is less invasive this also means that the patient will experience less bleeding or swelling as well as less pain then they would experience with traditional gum recession treatment. This technique allows the specialist to treat multiple teeth in one gum recession treatment.
