During the procedure, a very small opening is made in your gum tissue and special instruments are used to loosen and reposition healthy gum tissue to cover the sites of recession. Collagen strips are inserted to aid in healing. With PST™, there is no cutting, stitches, or second surgical site. Many patients are surprised that, in most cases, they can return to their normal daily routine soon after their procedure. PST™ renders immediate cosmetic results and multiple teeth can be treated in one appointment.
