Pinhole® Surgical Technique
Tooth #25
Procedure date: 12/16/25
Post-op interval: 3 weeks
Procedure time: 3:01 PM – 4:45 PM
This case documents the early healing phase following treatment of localized gingival recession at tooth #25 using the Pinhole® Surgical Technique, a minimally invasive approach developed to reposition gingival tissue without scalpel incisions or sutures.
At 3 weeks post-procedure, the treated site demonstrates:
• Increased soft-tissue thickness
• Improved tissue continuity and surface maturation
• Reduced marginal inflammation relative to baseline
At this stage, the final resting position of the gingival margin has not yet declared, as continued biologic remodeling is expected. The clinical objective of the procedure was to establish a stable soft-tissue environment and allow the patient’s own biology to determine long-term tissue position.
Baseline → 3-week post-operative observation
The Pinhole® Surgical Technique is designed to create conditions favorable for healing while minimizing surgical trauma and patient downtime.
