BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich. - Michimich -- Board-certified local periodontist, Dr. Lauren Anderson, is bringing the world's most minimally invasive gum disease treatment solution to her practice. Referred to as the tunneling technique, the treatment allows patients to restore their receding gums without the need for incisions. The tunneling technique represents the latest in highly precise protocols designed to help dental patients resolve their oral health problems quickly, comfortably, and effectively.

The tunneling technique differs from more traditional gum grafting procedures because it makes use of existing gum tissue but requires no cutting. Using special equipment, Dr. Anderson makes tunnels throughout the gum tissue after cleaning the surface of the affected teeth and jawbone. Then, she uses a specialized dental tool that allows her to create tiny tunnels throughout the gum tissue.

Once the tunnels are made, Dr. Anderson carefully inserts gum grafting material into the newly opened spaces. After ensuring that the site meets her high expectations both functionally and aesthetically, she uses sutures to hold the gum grafting material in place.

Each tunneling technique procedure takes about an hour to complete depending upon how widespread the patient's gum recession is. Within a few weeks after treatment, the gum grafting material becomes part of the surrounding gums, leading to healthier coverage of teeth roots and jawbone.

Gum recession is a common problem that brings many people to the periodontist. Explains Dr. Anderson, "Receding gums can become a serious issue over time if they are not corrected. Without enough gum tissue, the teeth and bone are vulnerable to damage. The overall look of the smile can suffer, too, which can result in lowered patient confidence. The tunneling technique offers a fast, predictable, and gentle way to address receding gums in patients who are prime candidates for this gingival grafting option."
