do I need surgery

[kylefoley76]

My periodentist recommends osseous surgery for three quads which will cost 950 per quad. And also thinks osseous graft, gingival flap and gem 21 for the lower left whhich will cost 1450, but he's not very insistent on it. I don't see why if the lower left is healthier why it costs more money to fix.

These are the size of my pockets. I am 36 years old.

Upper Right, starting from the back

Lower Right, starting from the back

Lower left, starting from the back. The dentist doesn't want to do surgery on this one.

Hi Kyle,

In my office, we would be able to treat this non-surgically, but I would use my laser on the three 8mm pockets.
