www.pinholegumr... Los Angeles, CA - For one out of 10 people who wear braces, the end result isn’t a perfect smile. That’s because they develop receding gums. Treatment usually requires expensive and painful gum grafting surgery, but with Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™ gum recession can now be corrected in minutes with no scalpel, no stitches and very little recovery time.
Eighteen-year-old Chelsea Cassady says receding gums made her self-conscious to smile. “I looked in the mirror and I pulled up my lips and I saw that my gums were completely receded, and I didn’t even know that could happen.” Chelsea’s dentist blames her braces. Plaque built up around them and made them hard to clean. Dr. John Chao, dentist and inventor of the “Pinhole” treatment says that “Sometimes, because orthodontics move teeth, when the teeth are moved to a certain extent, you can actually cause the gums to shrink away from the roots.”
Chelsea didn’t want to undergo conventional gum grafting surgery,. After doing some research on alternatives to gum grafting she decided to have Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation, at Dr. Chao’s office in Alhambra, a Los Angeles suburb.
“Instead of cutting and grafting gum tissue, we just make a very tiny pinhole above the gum line where the tissue is soft. Then, using specialized dental instruments which I designed, we detach the gum tissue away from the bone. And once it’s loose, we can drape it down over the receded area,” says Dr. Chao. To promote faster healing, tiny strips of collagen are placed in the pinholes. Chelsea’s entire procedure took just 42 minutes start to finish. Dr. Chao is training doctors from across the country and around the world in the minimally invasive procedure, also known as the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique®.
