A member asked:

I'll specifically ask perio's front desk, "does he have lots of bone grafting & bony buccal wall rebuilding experience?". can i rely on the answer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Great Question!: Go straight to the doc and ask him. Sounds like you have need of reassurance you are in good hands perio is trained to handle these matters but how many completed is a great question! chuck.
