Referred to Dr. Kanter by my dentist for a consultation regarding a periodontal pocket I have. The measurements to determine pocket depth were the most painful I have ever experienced. (This procedure should be only slightly painful if done with concern for patient comfort.) Also, the demonstration of special brushes and tools to clean pocket was extremely painful. After the exam, I mentioned to Dr. Kanter the pain I had experienced. His response was that he practices "tough love". His knowledge of and ability to explain the science and biology involved was excellent; however, I would not recommend seeing Dr. Kanter unless you have a high tolerance for pain.
