Gum Recession

A large population in the United States suffers from gum recession, or root exposure. Gum recession refers to when the gum tissue recedes from the crown of the tooth, which revels more of the tooth or even the root as well.

At Goduco Family Dentistry, we have the solution you need if you suffer from receding gums. Gum rejuvenation eliminates your suffering from tooth sensitivity due to your tooth’s exposed roots. Left untreated, tooth recession can lead to further problems such as tooth decay and chronic sensitivity of the tooth.

Invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S., Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation is an incision-free and suture-free procedure that treats gum recession, and is the procedure that Goduco Family Dentistry uses for gum recession. A small pinhole is made, and Dr. Goduco uses instruments that were specially designed to loosen the gum tissue and move it over the exposed part of the tooth. This allows the gum line to return to its normal position. Patients experience a great level of comfort after surgery and have minimal post-operative symptoms since there are no stitches or incisions made. In addition, the majority of patients experience cosmetic improvement instantly.

If you suffer from receding gums, call Goduco Family Dentistry today so we can get started on covering your roots and improving your smile.
