The Pinhole Surgical Technique by John Chao, DDS, MAGD
The Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST™), invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S., is an incision-free, suture-free procedure for treating gum recession. Through a small pinhole made by a needle, Dr. Chao uses specially designed instruments to gently loosen the gum tissue and glide it over the receded part of the tooth. Since there is no incision or suturing, patients can expect minimal post-operative symptoms (pain, swelling and bleeding). Most patients also are pleasantly surprised by the instant cosmetic improvement. [more] Dr. Cannon has been trained by Dr. Chao in the pinhole surgical technique. Dr. Cannon traveled to Los Angeles to learn the technique from Dr. Chao personally. |
