I was just lurking here, Ish, when I saw your post.

Don't let them cut you any more! Ask them if they are willing to try any of the following alternatives, and if they aren't, find a periodontist who is!

First up is Atridox. Please note that in the clinical trial, the group that had Atridox treatment alone did just as well as the group that had scaling and planing alone. (Of course, the Periodontal Association has hastened to say that ATridox should not therefore REPLACE scaling and planing, but should be used as adjuvant therapy.) Also note that scaling and planing itself is not as radical, as painful, or as EXPENSIVE as the gum surgery they are threatening you with.

Now, go to:

This article discusses two other new PAINLESS treatments (PerioChip and Periostat) as well as Atridox:
