Hello This is Dr. Deng Shu:

Here is the my personal practice philosophy, only stands for my personal opinions:

1. Scaling and Root Planning, or Deep Cleaning is only beneficial for patients who have attachment loss. 

2. Dental filling, is a compromised and invasive procedure,  for some pre-cavity lesions, if possible, reinforce the oral hygiene maintanance, collaborating with the patient, attempting to block it from progressing.

3. Implant is not ideal, it presents all kinds of complications, the longer we monitor it, the more we encounter. If possible, save the nature tooth as much as we can.

4. Root Canal Therapy is an irreversible procedure, be cautious before making decisions to do RCT for a tooth, try everything we could first. Even delaying the RCT could be very beneficial for our patients.

5. Not all the wisdom teeth harmful, only when they: impacting the neighbor tooth, irritating the soft tissues or too hard to brush and clean, we need to remove them, otherwise we could monitor.
