What Is the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique?

The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat gum recession without the need for traditional gum grafting. Developed by Dr. John Chao, this technique provides a quick and effective solution for restoring the health and appearance of your gums.


Benefits of the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique

1. Minimally Invasive

The Pinhole® Technique requires only a small incision or "pinhole" in the gum tissue. This results in less discomfort, reduced risk of complications, and a faster recovery compared to conventional gum grafting methods.


2. No Sutures Needed

Unlike traditional methods that often require sutures, the Pinhole® Technique utilizes specialized instruments to gently reposition the gum tissue. This approach eliminates the need for stitches, enhancing patient comfort and simplifying the healing process.


3. Immediate Results

Patients typically see noticeable improvement in gum coverage immediately after the procedure. The technique effectively restores the gumline, providing both functional and aesthetic benefits in a single visit.


4. Minimal Downtime

With minimal invasiveness and no sutures, the recovery time is significantly reduced. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days, with only minor post-operative care required.


How the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique Works

1. Initial Consultation

Dr. Navid Baradarian will perform a comprehensive examination, including diagnostic imaging, to evaluate your gum health and determine if the Pinhole® Technique is suitable for your condition.


2. Procedure Preparation

During the procedure, a small "pinhole" is made in the gum tissue. Through this tiny entry point, Dr. Baradarian uses specialized instruments to gently loosen and reposition the receded gum tissue over the exposed tooth roots.


3. Tissue Repositioning

The gum tissue is carefully adjusted to cover the exposed tooth roots and restore the natural gumline. The procedure may include placing collagen strips to support the tissue and enhance the healing process.


4. Post-Procedure Care

After the Pinhole® Technique, you will receive specific care instructions to ensure proper healing. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume regular activities quickly.
