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. ,

I have recently been to my Dentist and had to have yet another tooth taken out due to Gum Disease. My Dentist as adviced me to have all my teeth taken out and Dentures fitted. I really dont like the idea of wearing Dentures as I do Karate and cant stand my mouth guard in my mouth as it makes me wrench. What are my options? I have thought of implants but they seem to be many different types. which would be the best for me? Can I have implants if I have Gum Disease? Thank you.,

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.,

I have been referred to a periodontist who has quoted £1,100 for a morning and afternoon treatment for full mouth disinfection. He has already charged £160 for the consultation on top of this. The £1,100 appears very high – any views?,

My crown is causing my gums to look obviously red, what is causing this?

Friday, April 9th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had a crown fitted onto my front tooth a year ago to replace a vaneer that broke off. Where the crown touches the gum it is slightly red and when I smile you can see the redness on my gum, making me smile less. My dentist at first said I could be a little sensitive to the crown and to brush it better. This has not changed it and it still looks slightly red. It has never caused my any pain, just looks quite obvious……what could be causeing this. Many thanks,
