Root Coverage Transformed: No Incisions, No Sutures, No Grafting Ten Teeth in One Hour Gingival Recession Patented PST instruments Raising and advancing flap Collagen placed with PST patented Chao pliers Flap fixated with no sutures Root coverage has been transformed by the advent of the Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST) * PST has been described as needing no incisions, no sutures, and no grafting. PST is virtually painless and gives instantly pleasing results. Quick healing follows PST. Any tooth can be treated with PST. Ten or more teeth can be treated in one hour. One Pinhole used for up to 6 teeth. A 33-month study published in the International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry concluded that PST may be deemed a predictable, effective, minimally invasive, and time- and cost-effective alternative to FCTG [graft} techniques for obtaining optimal patient based outcomes. (International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry 2012: 32: 521-531) I invented, patented and published this method* and instruments** in The International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry. I want to share the benefits of this breakthrough, peer reviewed method with you. For abstract and further information, such as news clips, videos, and animation please visit me at: www.pinholesurgicaltechnique.com PST has caught the attention of local and national media. So far, 14 TV stations, including KABC, Los Angeles, have featured PST as a desirable alternative to traditional grafting methods. Many dentists from across the country will be attending these seminars which will be held at my office.
