Patients spend millions of dollars each year on diagnosis and
treatment of periodontal disease. A practicing dentist and expert
witness with over twenty-five years of experience takes a
behind-the-scenes look at the world of dentistry while teaching
about the importance of good occlusion, how orthodontists have
failed their patients, and the many shortfalls of periodontics.
David DiBenedetto, DMD, claims that occlusion-how our teeth meet
when our jaws are brought together-is of crucial importance to
dental health. He also states that the field of orthodontics
continues to concern itself about aesthetics, not on how jaws
function, even though studies illustrate that orthodontic treatment
does not increase the chances of keeping teeth later in life. Dr.
DiBenedetto has made it his life's work to educate dental patients
on the importance overall health plays in determining dental health
and in what treatment works best for periodontal disease. You will
learn:
How periodontists and orthodontists think
How the jaw works
How to determine what you want from your orthodontist
How you can keep your teeth and gums healthy
Case histories, photographs, and diagrams are provided in this
informative guidebook that will help explore your difficult dental
questions in a logical manner.
