Challenge:<\/strong> To establish health through periodontal intervention per JP Institute protocols.<\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong> A female with ADHD and panic disorder appointed to the office in early 2016. A referral to a periodontist was given resulting in the consultation recommendation of surgery for the extraction of all third molars with a fair prognosis. The patient scheduled, but later canceled the surgery and denied extraction of all third molars.<\/p>\n

In Spring 2017, at age 25, the female returned to the office with the chief complaint of bleeding, painful gums, halitosis and mouth breathing. The periodontal assessment revealed generalized 4-5mm pockets with localized 6-9mm pocket; the bleeding on probing was generalized. It was agreed to try a non-surgical therapy approach.<\/p>\n

Solution:<\/strong> The JP Institute protocol includes procuring a saliva specimen followed by multiple sessions of therapy with co-therapy instruction (aka home care instruction) and nutritional counseling. A MyPerioPath\u00ae was secured on 4\/20\/2017. The treatment plan consisted of 6-8 periodontal therapy visits. The 1-hour periodontal therapy sessions included micro-ultrasonics and oral irrigation. The co-therapy consisted of Sonicare\u00ae toothbrush, Sonicare\u00ae Airflosser, StellaLife\u00ae rinse\/gel\/spray, flossing and LifePak\u00ae Nano. For the post-therapy testing, the Alert 2\u2122 was taken on 8\/3\/2017 which includes MyPerioPath\u00ae and MyPerioID\u00ae. The systemic antibiotic of Metronidazole 500 mg twice a day for 10 days was administered following the post-therapy test.<\/p>\n

Resolution:<\/strong> By incorporating OralDNA\u00ae salivary tests, the pre MyPerioPath\u00ae, and integrating The JP Institute methods of communication, my patient was able to own her disease. The pre MyPerioPath\u00ae confirms a bacterial cause and the post MyPerioPath\u00ae gives an objective measurement of bacteria reduction. The MyPerioID\u00ae portion of the Alert 2\u2122 being G\/G, or High risk, helps to establish the need for more comprehensive non-surgical therapy and frequent recare as well as forewarns the patient of possible relapse.<\/p>\n

I was confident the periodontal therapy was going to result in a healthy tissue response, which is apparent from the below photo. The patient and I were pleasantly surprised with the overall health benefits including improved energy, better breathing- as her sinuses cleared resulting in secession of mouth breathing, and her mood stabilized resulting in discontinuation of Adderall.<\/p>\n
