Jim,

I never said the bone should not be thoroughly debrided. I said the surgeon needs to take great care in removing the tooth as well as the diseased tissue so as to preserve as much bone as possible as the canine is the cornerstone of the arch. That is what I said.

Every dental school on the face of this earth teaches the dental students to debride the bony socket after the tooth is extracted. The problem is that this important step is frequently neglected to some degree. FYI... Biological dentists attend the same schools that conventional dentists attend.
