Gum Lift Rejuvenation

Dr. Jamil Alkhoury and the team of Brentwood Family Dental believe in providing a variety of general and cosmetic dentistry services for patients of all ages. Patients who are dealing with problems such as gum recession may want to consider a surgical treatment to help repair the gum line. Gum recession occurs due to gum disease, aging, or abrasive brushing habits and can expose the root structure of the tooth underneath. This increases one’s risk for decay. When patients care for their gum recession accordingly, they can help protect their teeth while also improving the aesthetics of their smile.

To address gum recession, patients can come to Brentwood Family Dental for a procedure called the Pinhole Surgical Technique™, also referred to as PST™. This procedure is a minimally invasive solution that does not require the use of incisions and sutures. It differs from traditional gum grafts in a big way. While conventional methods of addressing gum recession requires the application of donor tissue to expand the gum tissue, this method creates small holes in the gum tissue to soften it and stretch it over the tooth to cover the exposed root structure. The benefits? No sutures, incisions, and grafting. Other advantages include faster recovery and healing, less discomfort, and beautiful, long-lasting results. This makes it a highly desirable solution when it comes to readjusting the gum line for better oral health and appearance.
