I think the research shows that, with Atridox, margin gain was best in the deepest pockets. This is something to check with the company. Also, in deeper pockets there is no guarantee that SRP will be effective. In reality, the deeper the pocket, the less chance for all the calculus to be removed. My brother is a dentist and he has told me of instances where SRP results in closing the pocket halfway down, thereby creating an abscess below the pocket closure. I really don't see how this dentist could call Atridox expensive. The conference call stated that a unit costs roughly forty to forty-five dollars, and it will treat one quadrant, or one-fourth of the mouth. Dentists are using that one unit and charging one hundred to one hundred twenty dollars. The procedure is a ten to fifteen minute affair, so they are making a lot of money in terms of chair time. Just my thoughts.
