What is gum recession?

Gum recession is the loss of tissue along your gum line. This is a common symptom of periodontal disease. It can also be linked to the natural aging process, or abrasive brushing and flossing habits.

Common signs of gum recession are tooth sensitivity and pain, teeth that look longer than they used to, and loose teeth. Left untreated, the ultimate result can be tooth loss.

Gum recession is very treatable. Mild cases of gum recession can often be treated by a professional deep cleaning. For more advanced cases, high-tech surgical or non surgical procedures will restore your gums and health.

Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique

The Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique (often simply called Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation) is a minimally-invasive and natural method for treating gum recession.

Invented and patented by Dr. John Chao, this technique is revolutionizing the way periodontists like Dr. Pumphrey and Dr. Richman reverse gum recession.

Using a small needle, we’ll create access to the tissue above your gums. Then a high-tech instrument is used to gently loosen your gum tissue, sliding it over your exposed root structure.

Soft Tissue Augmentation (Gum Graft)

Also known as gum grafting, soft tissue augmentation is a traditional and effective method for treating receding gums.

This procedure involves using donor tissue or soft tissue from your palate to cover exposed root surfaces and rebuild the gum line.

We offer sedation dentistry options to ensure your gum graft procedure is comfortable and successful. Your mouth should be feeling back to normal in about two weeks.

Dr. Pumphrey is one of the only board-certified periodontists in Midtown Atlanta and Roswell trained to provide the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique. He learned this method from the inventor of the procedure, Dr. Chao himself.

I had the Chao pinhole gum procedure done by Dr. Brock Pumphrey. The results and short down time is amazing. My gums are no longer recessed. I can’t say enough about the experience….I drove myself to and from the office…the procedure took less than two hours for five areas!!!
