And who will be deciding the perio status of these patients? Will these assistants also be providing full mouth probings once a year?? This will only lead to more undiagnosed perio and substandard care. I strongly oppose the idea of "training" assistants to scale and am very disappointed that this is even an issue we are discussing.
