New Jersey Dentist Now Treats Receding Gums With Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation
Milburn, NJ – Dr. Vladimir Gashinsky of Holistic Dental Center now offers Chao Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™, a minimally invasive alternative to conventional gum grafting that requires no scalpels or stitches. “Also known as the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique™, the procedure allows patients to have a much more comfortable treatment with minimal pain, swelling, or bleeding,” says Dr. Gashinsky. He says that he makes one or more small pinholes in the gums, then he uses specially designed dental tools placed through the entry points to loosen the gums and guide the tissue down to improve coverage of the receded areas. Small strips of collagen, similar to the material used for collagen injections are inserted through the pinhole to stabilize the gums,” says Dr. Gashinsky. “Patients can return to normal activities almost immediately with virtually no pain in most cases. The procedure typically requires a single in-office visit and most patients will see a noticeable cosmetic improvement immediately following the procedure.”
Reeding gums are corrected without scalpels or stitches.

“There are different reasons why people choose to have corrective treatment for their gum recession,” says Dr. Gashinsky. “Many patients are motivated by the appearance of their receding gums, others are concerned with sensitivity to cold temperatures due to exposed root surfaces and decay at the receded areas. Treatment of gum recession is also important because when the gums recede, so does the bone that supports the teeth. As the gums shrink, bone is lost, increasing the chances of tooth loss.”
