Healthy gums are a big part of a beautiful smile. When you suffer from prolonged periodontal disease, you are in danger of losing gum tissue, teeth, and bone. Once the infection has advanced, you may need periodontal treatments to stop the infection and repair the damage that has already occurred. Dr. Kyle Duffy is experienced in a wide range of periodontal services, including gum recession treatments.
You can have an immediately improved smile with the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique (PST™). PST™ is a gum recession treatment that is performed without scalpels for a more comfortable, convenient procedure and recovery. With PST™, Dr. Kyle Duffy addresses the gum recession caused by periodontal disease by creating a small pinhole above the tooth affected. He then loosens the connective tissue that holds it in place, allowing the tissue to be gently guided over your tooth into its ideal position. This gum recession treatment delivers a healthier, beautiful smile in a single visit.
Advanced periodontal disease often results in tooth loss. Dr. Kyle Duffy can give you a permanent replacement for your missing tooth that looks and feels natural. It is called a dental implant, and it offers numerous benefits, including convenience, comfort, and the preservation of bone health.
