  We construct worldsheet traversable wormholes by considering the effects of a
double-trace deformation, $\delta\mathcal{L}\sim
h\partial\phi_L\partial\phi_R$, coupling the endpoints of an open string in AdS
space. The operator deforming the theory is irrelevant and makes the boundaries
bend inward toward the IR. This effect, reminiscent of two-dimensional dilaton
gravities, renders the teleportation protocol more efficient and facilitates
the transfer of information between the members of the dual Bell pair. We
compare our results with those obtained with the standard double-trace
deformation, $\delta\mathcal{L}\sim h\phi_L\phi_R$, introduced by Gao, Jafferis
and Wall.
