The documentation of reduced need for surgery has been done by Dr. Loesche. His group documented a 93% reduction in the need for surgery about individual teeth and 81% reduction in the need for tooth extractions. 81% of patients went to maintenance phase without surgery. Conclusion: These findings indicate that a treatment paradigm based on the diagnosis and treatment of anaerobic infection is likely to be successful in those patients for who access surgery is recommended. |
