(HealthNewsDigest.com) – LOS ANGELES, Feb. 19, 2014 — “Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation(TM) is quickly becoming the patient’s treatment of choice over conventional gum grafting surgery,” says Dr. John Chao, a leading dentist, educator and inventor of the technique. “Once patients learn that their gum recession can be reversed without any cutting or stitches they feel comfortable about accepting necessary treatment. That is in contrast to the reaction that many patients have when informed by their dentists that they need gum grafting surgery. Many, if not most patients with receding gums don’t comply with a dentist’s recommendation to undergo conventional gum grafting because they perceive a painful, invasive surgery that requires extended downtime,” says Dr. Chao. The treatment is also known as the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique(TM).
After research and refinement of his technique Dr. Chao submitted his study to a highly respected, peer reviewed journal. A 33-month study of 43 patients with 121 gum recessions using the Pinhole Surgical Technique(TM) was published in the October 2012 issue of The International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry. The results of this study were as successful as traditional gum grafting procedures which require cutting and sutures, while patients who underwent the Pinhole Surgical Technique(TM) reported virtually no pain, no bleeding and high satisfaction with a rapid transformation of the defective gum line. (Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent 2012; 32: 521-531.)
Dr. Chao holds patents on the method and the dental instruments used in Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation(TM). He is currently conducting monthly training classes for dental professionals. “My goal is to teach as many general dentists and periodontists as possible to perform Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation(TM) in a responsible way to ensure that each patient receives the best treatment,” he says.
