I was afflicted with very severe periodontal disease for well over 15 years. During that time I had been treated by 3 highly recommended periodontists. In each case I underwent repeated treatments only to be told afterwards that my case was beyond treatment and that a whole mouth (or near whole mouth) extraction was required. Am I ever glad that I didn’t throw in the towel, and also that I came upon Judy’s clinic.
Without undergoing surgery, Judy managed to fully restore my oral health. I’ve kept all my teeth with no threat of loosing any of them anytime soon. For the first time in decades I do not suffer from root sensitivity or abcesses. This treatment really works. I would encourage anyone with any degree of periodontal disease to seek it out.

Judy,
I just can’t tell you in words how much all you’ve done has meant to me. You are an amazingly special woman and I can’t sing your praises highly enough to everyone I meet!
I really want you to know how much finding Periopeak and having the perioscopy treatment has meant to me - I feel like a huge burden has been lifted from my shoulders (not to mention my teeth!) and I know I’ve been blessed to have been able to find you (and Louanne, too!). You’re always in my prayers and I hope you’ll keep in touch.
Oh - I almost forgot - we absolutely LOVED Seattle - we went to Pike Place market before we left and bought a couple of pounds of salmon & Dungeness crab and lugged it home on the plane. We also spent an entire day (I think it was Fri) driving all around Olympic Nat’l Park - took the ferry - drove to the Quileute Indian reservation, LOVED the Pacific Ocean at La Push, drove back down 101, saw Ruby Beach (excellent!), found a place called Kalaloch Lodge that we hope we’ll be able to get back some day to stay at - it’s so beautiful there. Drove 5 through Olympia, Tacoma and then back up to Lynnwood. We were exhausted, but happy!!
Thank you again for all you’ve done. I am so lucky to have found you. I wish the same for my fellow periodontal sufferers.
We’d love to take you up on your “salmon feast” offer when we manage to get back to Seattle - I’ve already told Russ I’m planning on going back to you for my one year checkup!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
All the best,
Lucy

Hi Judy,
Well, good news! I just got home from the dentist and having my teeth cleaned and pockets probed and x-rays. All GOOD! Sammi Snyder from Dr, Haddads office will be sending my probing results and x-rays to you. So much new bone, you just wouldn’t believe it. You will be so proud. They (and me), were so excited. And the fun thing for me was that the cleaning and probing did not hurt at all, almost no sensitivity. Almost no bleeding.
My teeth just feel stronger in my mouth.
I know Sammi would love to be doing what you do, of course she doesn’t have the equipment, but some day, I hope.
I hope you are doing well, and that you are convincing more people to do your perioscopy technique, It really works.
I’ll go back on Dec 20 for cleaning and probing and x-rays (7 months by then), and see how far we are with bone growth.
Hope you’re well.
thanks for everything.

Hi Judy!
I’m sure all of your patients gush about the great work you do and I am no different. You’ve relieved a lot of stress in my life and you made our trip to Seattle a treasured memory. And I lost 5 pounds, ON VACATION. That NEVER happens. But I guess 4-5 hours on Mt. Rainier can do that for you.
I’ve never been anxious to go to the dentist, but I can’t wait for my first check-up so he can see your work.
Thanks again for everything and for the work you do,
Rebecca

Judy,
I have been remiss in contacting you to let you know how wonderful it was to meet you. My teeth feel fabulous. I keep resisting the urge to wiggle that tooth that was sooooo loose. I just did and it feels tighter already!!! Yeah!
I have told everyone…even people who werent interested (smile)…about how terrific you are and how amazing the procedure was. I had a little tenderness and swelling from the laser procedure but thats it.
My gums actually feel different. They feel tighter and more normal if thats a description.
I went on two tourist tours and enjoyed every minute. I saw the salmon steps and the locks. I spent the rest of the time walking and resting. I truly enjoyed Seattle. I really needed the rest also.
Thank you so much for taking me to lunch at that lovely restaurant. It was truly the best meal I had while I was there.
Finding you and saving my teeth has been a turning point in my life. Thank you.
Again please forgive me for taking so long to express my gratitude.
Love Chris

Hi Judy,
I just got back from my first dental appt. since the perio treatment. I was nervous. Everyone was so anxious to get a look at my mouth and hear all about the procedure. The hygienist was new and had just seen my chart for the first time. After reading your letter she couldn’t wait to get started.
This is how the conversation went……”Wow……..wow,wow……oh my gosh, this is so exciting……incredible……..I can’t wait to get done with work so I can check out her website…….I’ve never seen anything like this before.
She GENTLY checked some of the pockets and continued to be amazed. My 9mm’s were down to 4mm’s. She’s anxious for my next checkup so she can do a little more. Needless to say Dr. Cobb was just as amazed and anxious to learn more about your treatment. I wouldn’t be surprised if you hear from him. He’s a great guy and cares very much about people (just like you).
I couldn’t wait to get home to give you the update. I’ll no longer be anxious about going to the dentist.
Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

P.S. My mom told HER dentist about the results and they are VERY interested. So if you get inquiries from Southern Ohio, you’ll know we’ve been telling EVERYONE.

Oh My Heavens!!!So much time has gone by so quickly. Please forgive me for not getting right to you to tell you how fabulous I’ve been doing. Your ears should be buzzing all the time because I haven’t stopped talking about the wonderful experience of finding you, and how great your work was when I was in your chair. MY FRONT TOOTH IS ONLY A TINY BIT LOOSE. Tiny,tiny. I’m soo happy since it was so loose before your treatment I was afraid to touch it because it was so loose I thought it was going to fall out. No pain, no more gum abscess. All my other teeth feel tighter and “healthy” . I am so grateful.
I’m afraid to let anyone touch my gums. I can’t afford to come back for a three month cleaning but I hope to come out for the 6 month cleaning. What should I say to the dental hygeinist about how not to disrupt your work.
You are one of the sweetest people. I will always be gratefull for your fantastic passion to save peoples teeth. You have saved mine. Happy New Year!! Love Chris

Judy,
THANK YOU so much for inviting me to your lecture-it was inspirational and very informative. As I gain more experience I hope to work one day for a periodontist who has a perioscope…Even though I haven’t been practicing long at all I know that I do not do the best job I can do (no matter how thorough I am) simply because I do it blindly.
I really wish I was at least shown what a perioscope is and what it does while I was in school….Shoreline students are so lucky to have you as their speaker! I am still on the look out for a patient to refer to your practice for tx…
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge, experience, and passion!

Hi Judy,
I thought the x-rays looked good….”hopeless” should be removed from periodontal vocabulary! Interesting, I do not even know which is 31 (please describe location). I am assuming I would not do any root canal(s) until the emdogain has had a full year to perform…please advise if that is correct….thanks! Maybe by then, you will come up with an easy procedure that replaces root canals (may be closer to the truth than we think!) The gingiva by 19 is still quite receded….any chance that it will grow back?
I am so very pleased that I followed my instincts and that I found you and went with your program instead of the very grizzly and old fashioned periodontal approach!
Many thanks and much gratitude,
All the best,
Bonnie

Dear Judy
I want to thank you for the work you have done on my teeth to date. Your enthusiasm, dedication and passion for saving peoples’ teeth and mine in particular have been impressive and it has helped me through a difficult period.
When Dr. “X” told me some months ago that I had no choice but to have all my teeth extracted I was dumbfounded and confused. I knew that my teeth were not the best in the world and that I did have periodontitis, but I did not think that my condition was that terminal!
Researching on the web and talking to people, I discovered the Perioscopy technology and then through you learned about Emdogain. As I researched the topic more and more, and discussed with you and others, I realized that I had an alternative and was going to give it a fair, fighting chance.
I knew that four teeth were goners and that the future of two more could not be guaranteed but I still wanted to give it a try. Following the two Perioscopy sessions with you, the Emdogain treatment and the increased emphasis on my own personal dental hygiene (flossing daily, electric toothbrush, and quarterly visits to the dental hygienist), I think that we have the situation under control and in check. That is why I decided to start the implant treatment to restore the gaps. It looks like only four will be necessary and that the two no-guarantee teeth are going to be okay.
As you know my main concern was not cosmetic, my smile has always been a bit crooked but I wanted to keep my own teeth for as long as possible, and enjoy eating and drinking and really tasting what is in my mouth.
Your dedication to the furtherance of the Perioscopy technology and your desire to save people from having their teeth extracted too soon and unnecessarily, are to be admired. I know that you will continue with such energy, and that is why I have written this letter in the hope that you will share my experience with others who have similar problems.
Thank you very much for everything.
Regards,
Steve

Hi Judy,
Thank you for taking the time to speak to me the other night. It was truly inspiring and put a spark back in me that I haven’t had in a while. I got into hygiene to make a difference and kind of lost focus somewhere along the way. After talking to you, I posted some of our conversation and your website. My class is truly excited about the perioscopy and hopefully created some buzz in them. Good luck with all that you do, your amazing and don’t forget that.
Blessings, Lisa Behrens RDH

Hi Judy,
I don’t know if you’ll remember me, but here goes…
I came to you from New York back in 2004 August.
Mine was a challenging case and you worked on me for several hours.
After the session, you and I and the doctor you were with at that time (I forget his name), had a discussion about
very low dose antibiotics to follow the periopeak treatment and how I used it to treat rheumatoid arthritis too.
Well, I’m happy to say 3 years later, that my periodontal problems are a thing of the past.
All my loose teeth are firm and I have no pockets!
You set the stage and the low-dose ABs did the rest.
If you recall, I then moved to India.
I have been here ever since and have set up an alternative medical center.
I have used a similar approach to gum disease on several people with very good results.
I always speak about you…telling others in India about your technology.
I have been meaning to write to you…and now finally I got down to it.
I will most probably be sending you a friend of mine who lives in Los Angeles…she needs the treatment badly.
I am also looking for a way to introduce the periopeak technology in India…has the company worked out their growing pains and production shortages?
Do drop me a line when time permits…it will be lovely to hear from you.
Good luck,
Suresh Shottam

Judy, I wanted to follow up with about my dentist visit last week. The doctor was very impressed with my turnaround and my back tooth no longer has mobility. Pockets were reduced by a large degree. He was running to your website after I left and he took several pictures of the area. I heavily encouraged him to contact you and look into training. This could be a positive connection for you. I also sent a note to Delta Dental about the procedure and process. They told me that they would look into it.
Thanks again and hope you are continuing to do great things…
Jan
