Would Europeans be interested in lectures concerning LANAP?

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Dear Andrew: I am a USA trained Periodontist ( gum specialist) with offices in New York City and New Jersey . I have been lecturing and performing Laser Periodontal Surgery for a number of years. One of the laser procedures is called LANAP ( Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure). I have lectured extensively around the USA with supporting documentation ( Photos, radiographs). This Laser protocol also involves regeneration of bone and connective tissue. There also enormous cosmetic and positive restorative implications as well. Patients can remain on blood thinners, and other medications for this treatment which we do in 1 visit. I could go on and on about this ” game changer” in my field of Periodontics. We are documenting all our results and will be publishing in the near future. I also know that the Laser protocol is currently receiving European approval. Would you know if the local or regional European societies/ dental schools/meetings would be interested in hearing me lecture on this modality of treatment? We are getting e mails now from all over the world. I am one of the first Periodontists on the Eastern border of the United States doing these Periodontal/gum procedures and have accumulated some interesting and exciting cases. Best of all, the patients are thrilled to have this option for their treatment. There is minimal post operative discomfort without any sutures or cutting of the gum tissue. Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you. ,

Spots along my gum are really starting to hurt and even peel. What’s the cause and is it common?

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Q.
Hi, so I have a question regarding my gums. The gum spots where I had my wisdom teeth removed a long while back are really hurting. I noticed they are raw where they started peeling a little, and its really a pain to chew food now. My co-worker said she has had a similar issue. What could be the cause of this? Is this a common thing, or do I need to be concerned?,

I have to have more periodontal work done on my jaw, is it going to be the same as the surgery I received before?

Friday, July 16th, 2010
Q.
I have severe bone loss and my periodontist wants to do osseous surgery on my upper and lower right jaw,(4 or more teeth upper and lower. I have already had the periodontal work done on the other side of my jaw, and I’m wondering is this is the same as lifting the flap of gum and cleaning the teeth, bone or whatever, which is what he did before? Can you explain to me if this is different, or what? Thank you.,

Food gets into the small gap between my dental implant and gum, what can be done about this?

Friday, July 9th, 2010
Q.
I have been fitted implants on the lower jaw with a small gap between the new teeth and the gum in which food gets stuck. While short after eating food tends to drain out, the experience of eating and feeling the gaps filled is not very pleasant. Is there anything that could be done to the gum to allow the teeth sitting onto it?,
