Important Things to
Understand about the Pinhole
Surgery
• The procedure does not require any incisions, which is
why you will not experience much pain during the
procedure. Since there will be no incisions, you do not
have to worry about any swelling. It is due to these
factors that this minimally invasive surgery is the prime
choice for most people with gum recession.
• The pinhole surgery is much better than the standard
gum grafting procedure for the reasons covered in the
last point. During the standard procedure, your dental
surgeon will take out a graft of the gum and then attach
it to where it is needed. It means that after the
procedure, you will be left with two surgical wounds.
These wounds will take time to heal and you will have to
follow a set routine and take special care to ensure
proper healing.
