Then suspect the Irises (sp?) would be slightly different.

What about computer facial recognition ?

Without getting into specifics, I can tell you first hand that
identical genetics is no guarantee of identical periodontal status (or
identical status for many other conditions).

Interesting observation that periodontal disease is not identical in
different people and that there are claims that genetic and health
factors are involved in this disease.

Do we talk like this about other "bacterial" diseases?

Well,

Money is important in life, but should it dictate treatment? I think
not. Is the most expensive treatment the best , especially when
there is a lack of epidemiology in dentistry. The book has an
emphasis on the lack of epidemiology in dentistry.

And, unfortunately, dentistry is more immune to regulations about
individual treatment then medicine.

Want to read the book for free? Ask your library for a copy. Also,
it is also available as an ebook.

Isn't it a sample size of "one" since someone else is treating the wife?

And,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, everyone knows the periodontal disease must be
identical in two different people with different genetics and health factors
so long as they both smoke.

In light of the stunning results of your trial with sample size =2
I can hardly wait to read your book. No doubt, in light of your
disinterest in money, you will posting a link so all can read it for
free!

Default Husband vs wife


I saw my patient of 21 years this week and he wanted me to sign my
book. He was going to give it to his wife. He and his wife have
"periodontal" disease. His wife can to see me in 1991 for a consult,
and she decided to be treated by a periodontist and not be me. He
has been treated by me only. They both smoke.

He tells me she has had repeated periodontal surgeries, in the same
quadrants, and has lost teeth.

He has not lost any teeth. I feel today he is in excellent dental
health.
He asked me why I don't give lectures after reading my book. I told
him, dentists do not want to hear lectures on how they will make less
money, dentists want to hear lectures on how to make more money.

David DiBenedetto, DMD. author of "Insider's guide to gum disease,
orthodontists, and dentistry. What is not taught in dental school."
