San Jose Dentist Announces New Fast Gum Recession Treatment

March 09, 2017 - PRESSADVANTAGE -

Dr. Peter Lee, DDS, with Today's Dentistry in San Jose, California, has announced that the practice is now offering the Pinhole Surgical Technique or PST™. Dr. Lee states that this new innovative procedure is a fast and painless receding gums treatment.

"Receding gums can cause sensitivity," says Dr. Lee. "They can lead to tooth loss and generally, patients feel less attractive when they suffer from receding gums. They can cause massive pain and high dental costs as the receding gums expose the root of the tooth and allows for tooth decay and other dental issues to take place."

Dr. Lee says that until recently, the treatment for receding gums was a painful procedure, known as gum grafting that required cutting a section of tissue from the patient's palate to be sewn onto the gum area. The dentist says that now, PST™ allows him to slide those receding gums back into place and the entire procedure takes just minutes with no recovery time needed.

"It really is an innovative procedure that allows our patients to feel completely relaxed and pain free while we treat their gums," Dr. Lee says. "This is a minimally invasive procedure, much less invasive than surgery, and requires no incisions or sutures."

The Pinhole Surgical Technique merely involves pushing the gums back into their original position. Dr. Lee reports that most patents are surprised by the instant improvement as well as the minimal discomfort experienced during the procedure. The technique eliminates the mouth pain caused by grafting and provides natural and long lasting results.

A recent study published in the International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry showed that the results of this particular procedure are just as successful as those of grafting procedures, with patients reporting no pain or bleeding as well as an instant transformation of the gum line that was treated. Dr. Lee states that his clinic is now offering this procedure in San Jose and many patients have already consulted with him regarding the procedure. Those interested in learning more can visit the dental practice online or contact them directly to schedule a consultation.
