320913 - 2. On Wednesday, May 13, called your office and spoke with Marsha
320914 - requesting consultation to reconcile seemingly significant
320915 - variance in periodontal charting 1 week apart. [...shown in the
320916 - record on, ref SDS 22 YI33...]. Marsha suggested submitting a
320917 - letter with objectives and background.

320920 - 3. You may recall performing deep cleaning services for me from
320921 - May 1986, and completing 2 years later on 880419 reducing 9s to
320922 - maximum 6 mm. ref SDS 1 0001
320924 - ..
320925 - 4. Since then, pockets have been below 6 until 131016, when Doctor
320926 - David Graham reported 6 pockets of 6 mm, shown in case study on
320927 - 150505. ref SDS 21 E23L
320929 - ..
320930 - 5. As seen in the study, 6 sites have now been reduced to only 3
320931 - sites of 6 mm, showing progress the past 2 years.
320933 - ..
320934 - 6. While I remain grateful for excellent care from Graham Dental
320935 - offices by both Doctor David Graham, now retired, and
320936 - continuing with his son Mark, I am struck by variances in
320937 - periodontal charting just a week apart between 150422 - 150505,
320938 - when Doctor Lisa Grosso did 2nd opinion charting. ref SDS 21

320941 - ..
320942 - 7. Nominally, many variances of 1 mm up or down would seem likely.
320943 - In this case, about 120 sites are worse and only 5 better
320944 - between charting on 150422 and 150505. Some 12 sites are worse
320945 - by 2 mm and 1 by 3 mm. This presents questions of reliance on
320946 - the charting process - at least I am confused??
320948 - ..
320949 - 8. If you would like to take a look yourself, I would pleased to
320950 - visit your office again. In any case, your comments are
320951 - appreciated, and please submit your bill for consulting on this
320952 - matter.
320954 - ..
320955 - 9. Again, it's a pleasure to say how much I enjoyed working with
320956 - you 30 years ago.
