Ref:
Invisalign might be a "breakthrough" for amenable ortho misalignments,
and Branemark surely had a point for the edentulous lower arch, that has
expanded our treatment horizons for any potentially missing or missing
tooth. But, PD is a major human disease process, unlike crooked or
missing teeth. It's an, albeit, painless process, until too late for Tx,
that one could/should consider similar to CA in medicine, especially
considering the 1920's and now modern day knowledge of the etiology and
systemic implications of untreated PD.
How could/should we withhold a major treatment breakthrough, - LANAP,
PerioProtect, Oxyfresh, Arestin, for solely a financial gain? Unless of
course, it isn't.
Get real. Don't try to defend the indefensible.
