Pinhole Surgical Technique by Dr. Lisa Wentz

The Pinhole Surgical Technique is now offered by Dr. Lisa Wentz of Lubbock Periodontics. This procedure was invented by Dr. John Chao, offering patients a scalpel-free, suture free and conventional graft free way to correct gum recession.

The process is as simple as this:

Dr. Wentz will use specially designed instruments to loosen gum tissue and glide over receded parts of the tooth through a small hold made by a needle. There is no cutting, stitching, and patients can expect very minimal post-operative symptoms. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours and usually in most cases, patients are back to their regular daily routines the next day.
