I haven't actually been to see him yet. I got busy and had to cancel my appointment, and now I'm not sure if I will reschedule or not. Right now I'm oil pulling and that seems to be doing something, so I'm going to try that for awhile and if it doesn't work, I'll look into surgery again. I also bought an infrared sauna light, which is supposed to help. I like the idea of lasers rather than invasive surgery, but I've read so much about how you need to open up the site to get the infection out, and Dr. Hansen as far as I know only uses lasers. Have you talked to their office? Let me know if you find someone.
