Effective Treatment for Gum Recession
Restore your smile and oral health with soft tissue grafting procedures.
Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique™
Restore Your Smile With Same Day Results
In this simple procedure, Dr. Samuel DeAngelo makes a small “pinhole” opening in the gum tissue near the area needing augmentation. He inserts a special instrument to loosen and pull the extra gum tissue into the areas of recession. Collagen strips are placed for healing and cosmetic results are immediate.
Many patients are surprised that they can return to their daily activities as soon as they leave our office. With minimal discomfort and very little recovery time, the Pinhole Surgical Technique™ is an excellent treatment to restore your smile and oral health.
I have never had a bad experience with you all. Friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to clearly describe procedures and problems. Keep up the good work! – Kathleen K.
Deal With Your Gum Recession Today!
If you are experiencing gum recession due to the effects of periodontal disease, you are not alone. According to a recent CDC report, 47.2 percent of adults 30 years and older have some form of periodontal disease, and 70.1 percent of people over 65 have periodontal disease. Although gum recession can be a result of several other factors, periodontal disease is typically the main cause of this condition.
Gum recession occurs when the soft tissue surrounding the teeth starts to pull away, revealing the roots of the teeth. This can cause problems like an unattractive and uneven gum line, tooth sensitivity, discoloration, and an increased risk of root decay and damage. Without the gums to provide a barrier of protection, bacteria and disease can grow in these exposed areas, causing further destruction.
GUM GRAFTING
Traditional gum grafting procedures involve sourcing gum tissue either from within a patient’s own mouth or from another donor source. The tissue sample is then sutured to the area in need and allowed to heal, restoring the gum line to a healthier level. Allograft procedures obtain the tissue from another donor and reduce the need for a second surgical site within the patient’s mouth.
Restore the original beauty of your smile with soft tissue grafting procedures. If you have gum recession and want to learn more about Allograft gum grafting procedures or the Pinhole Surgical Technique™, please call our office and schedule an appointment with Dr. DeAngelo.
