A useful guide for clinicians experienced in periodontal regenerative
techniques as well as for those new to the field. Enamel matrix derivative

mimicking the biologic processes involved in nascent tooth
development. It has shown considerable promise in difficult
situations, including the treatment of furcation-involved teeth. This
well-illustrated, easy-to-read text explains the concepts and
mechanism of action of this advanced treatment approach and
demonstrates the surgical techniques and method of application that
will optimize its success potential. Clinical and radiographic

Cure Tooth Decay: Heal and Prevent Cavities with Nutrition
(Second Edition) by by Ramiel Nagel (Author), Timothy Gallagher (Foreword)
ISBN: 978-1434810601 Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform (November 11, 2010) $25.63 252 pages, paperback
Description of Book:
This book is the number two best-selling book in dentistry. Sure to be controversial with dentists, many consumers are reading it, and it would be wise for you to find out what they are reading. Here is the description given by the publisher:
"Forget about drilling, filling, and the inevitable billing. Your teeth can heal naturally because they were never designed to decay in the first place! They were designed to remain strong and healthy for your entire life. But the false promises of conventional dentistry have led us down the wrong path, leading to invasive surgical treatments that include fillings, crowns, root canals and dental implants.
"Now there is a natural way to take control of your dental health by changing the food that you eat. Cure Tooth Decay is based upon the pioneering nutritional program of dentist Weston Price, former head of research at the National Dental Association. Dr. Price's program proved to be 90-95% or more effective in remineralizing tooth cavities utilizing only nutritional improvements in the diet. Cure Tooth Decay is the result of five years of research and trial and error that started as one father's journey to cure his daughter's rapidly progressing tooth decay."
