What Is Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST)?

Dental Implants Fort Myers

The Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST) is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure designed to correct gum recession without traditional grafting or sutures. During PST, Dr. Krystal Reyes-Viruet creates a small entry point (a “pinhole”) in the gum tissue and gently repositions it over exposed tooth roots using special instruments. This approach eliminates the need for incisions or stitches, reducing patient discomfort, swelling, and recovery time compared with conventional gum surgery.

PST not only restores the gum line for improved aesthetics but also protects tooth roots from sensitivity, decay, and further recession. Fort Myers patients benefit from this precise, efficient technique, which addresses multiple teeth in a single procedure and preserves the natural appearance of their smile. The procedure promotes faster healing and maintains healthy gum tissue while offering long-lasting results. By combining advanced surgical skill with state-of-the-art instruments, Dr. Reyes-Viruet ensures that patients experience enhanced comfort, a more uniform gum line, and long-term protection against gum-related complications. PST is an excellent choice for patients seeking effective, minimally invasive gum recession treatment with exceptional cosmetic and functional outcomes.

  d such an amazing experience with Dr. Krystal Viruet and her team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. Dr. Viruet is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely caring—she takes the time to explain everything and makes you feel completely at ease.

Violeta and Jacky at the front office are just as wonderful. They are friendly, organized, and go above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, from scheduling to check-out.

The whole office has such a warm, positive energy. It’s rare to actually enjoy going to the dentist, but this team truly makes it a great experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional dental care!

  Following a referral from my dentist for severe periodontitis, I was experiencing significant personal challenges. Dr. Reyes-Viruet, Violeta, Jackie, and the entire staff have consistently provided a welcoming and compassionate environment. Their attentiveness to detail and dedication to my care have been exceptional. While this is the initial phase of treatment, I feel understood and supported, and I am confident in my ability to openly communicate any questions or concerns.
