FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, November 19, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Annette Middelhof, Lead Dentist and Owner of Enchanting Dentistry, has earned her certification to perform The Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST ) to correct receding gum tissue for patients. An alternative to traditional oral surgery, this new technique offers a less invasive, less painful, and less traumatic means of moving healthy gum tissue to areas where the gum line has recessed past a safe and healthy point. Fewer than one thousand professionals in the world are certified to perform The Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique.
The new technique is an incision-free procedure that involves making a very small hole in the gum tissue, whereby healthy gum tissue is loosened and moved to the areas that have recessed. Invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S. of Los Angeles. The Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST ) has been deemed as a breakthrough for treatment options for receding gums. Traditional surgery for such issues involve painful incisions, stitches or sutures, long recovery times, and prolonged soreness of the area. In contrast, the new procedure requires only small pinholes, no sutures or stitches, minimal swelling, a healing time of only 24-48 hours, and no cutting of the gum tissue.
Dr. Middelhof attended the University of Puerto Rico, earning her Doctor in Dental Medicine in 1999, after which she moved to New York City where she stayed two years doing advanced training in General Dentistry and Dental Medicine. After the two years of training, she took the North East Regional Board and earned her license to practice dentistry in the state of New York.
Dr. Middelhof, along with her new husband Christophe, relocated to Plantation after being back in Puerto Rico to take the Regional Dental Board. While in Plantation, Florida, she took the Florida Dental Board in order to practice in that state. She first worked as an associate for two years before opening her own dental practice, Enchanting Dentistry in 2007.
