[QUOTE="scenicway, post: 1277328, member: 7750"] There is a lot of misinformation on this thread and I wasn’t going to engage in it, but since you actually referenced a reputable journal via the nih link I had to take a look. You must not have actually read the JOE systemic review you are referencing. The JOE review is examining if there is a link between systemic diseases and poor endo outcomes. Is endodontic therapy as successful on patients with existing systemic diseases. That is what they are looking at. As you can imagine, patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes show delayed healing to medical procedures in general. This applies to implant success rates as well and is well documented. I implore anyone to present legitimate peer reviewed research that supports the conclusions reached in the Netflix show. You won’t find any because it doesn’t exist. The documentary was a marketing strategy produced by a group of general dentists in Texas that want to place more implants. [/QUOTE]
