Periodontal pocket depths were misreported as a means to prescribing very expensive, not covered by insurance, non-necessary treatments, including $176 worth of antiseptic rinse and an outrageous $492 worth of local antibiotics called Arestin. He also is either misinformed or just outright lying regarding the post-treatment care of Arestin. As it is a local antibiotic, its sub-gingival placement requires (according to the manufacturer's own literature) that you don't floss for 10 (ten) days. Dr Cage said that that was a misprint, and that in fact it was only necessary not to floss for 1 (one) day. Even if it was an honest mistake, wouldn't that raise a red flag for you if you were a dentist? Huge company with glossy literature has major typo? Not in this litigious day and age.
