Bruce Cochrane, DDS, MS speaks at the AAP Annual Meeting 2016 on Perio Tray delivery for the treatment of gum disease, mainly focusing on refractory cases.

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Periodontist and prosthodontist Bruce Cochrane speaks about refractory patient care at the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) on September 10, 2016. His talk, Easing Periodontal Maintenance, will focus on his published research and the real-world results he has documented with his own patients since 2007.

Refractory patient care is one of the largest hurdles in periodontics. "When you’ve tried everything and patients still exhibit more than 30% bleeding, you need another option. My patients were looking for me do something for them. They weren’t disappearing from my practice and they wanted to keep their teeth," explained Dr. Cochrane. "I tried the prescription tray approach both out of an intellectual curiosity and a sense of urgency to improve patient health."

"His curiosity is unique," comments co-presenter Tanya Dunlap, PhD "because he kept such careful documentation that researchers could use his data for retrospective study." That data was published in the Journal of Clinical Dentistry in December 2015 and will be presented to AAP attendees.
