Nearly 40% of patients have mild to moderate periodontitis today - An increased demand over the past decade.
Even with the best hygiene compliance, patients can still struggle with periodontal disease. This can have a domino effect on many other areas of their health and wellness—such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer. In many ways, it all starts with optimal periodontics care.
Rather than simply monitoring and referring these patients, there are new, minimally invasive techniques you can perform to improve patient satisfaction and retention.

When I first got the laser, I started doing modifications of going into a pocket without a flap. That wasn not easy for me, because I had grown up and also created a graduate programme around periodontics for 16 years where we truly listened to research. So it took a little bit of a leap of faith for me, but then I began to realise that we already had a natural incision, called a sulcular pocket entrance. And then as I began to do certain procedures, there's one thing I always kept in mind.
A modification of what we have been doing traditionally, but it makes in such a minimally invasive scenario, that that's where we win.
Your patients love you.

Eliminate gum recession. Save teeth in the front, where when someone smiles, and not see those big black triangles.
