At work today we had a demonstration about a machine called a Perioscope. This machine is like a little bity camera (intraoral) that is inserted in periodontal pockets and will show us what is on the root surfaces of the teeth. What we are looking for is calculus (AKA: tartar). Then we will be able to go and remove the tartar and the pocket will heal up. My dad was the little guinea pig to test out the new machine. He was such a trooper. So proud of him. He has a huge fear of the dentist. So this was a big step for him today. So proud!!! But we decided that we were not going to purchase the system. I'm glad because it is very difficult to use and wouldn't be worth the money that we are spending on it. So Judy and I talked Dr. Goldberg out of it.
GO EAGLES!
That is all Folks!
