In lieu of clinical cases, I wish to share an article by Dr. Nowzari. Dr. Hessam Nowzari, Director, University of Southern California Advanced Periodontics program, has been extensively involved in academic training programs in Taiwan since the late 90’s. From then, there was a rising demand for more advanced and formalized training in this region. Dr. Nowzari and his student, Dr. Mao-Chi Tuan, graduate (1997) of USC, co-founded the Taipei Academy of Reconstructive Dentistry (TARD) in the year 2004. Since its inception in 2004, TARD has built a strong relationship with the USA and has coordinated multiple educational programs to meet a broad range of needs for Asian Pacific oral health professionals. I was privileged to view an archive simulcast of a presentation he gave to the New Jersey Badda Bing Badda Boom Association of Endudes on Tooth Retention versus “Titanium Seeding”. Never seen the lad afore, but one helluva presentation. It simply reinforced my endless prattle about using social media to find those folks who are on the regular chicken and peas circuit as “advocates” et al. As I have no case to show you, I’ll do the next best thing…….read an article he c0-authored….just double clickez-vous and print it out…..thats in lieu of Melissa getting us an archive……..If you want to see an outstanding presentation by this lad for about what it costs to fill your tank these days, then go to
