2.0 out of 5 stars Rodney is obsessed with gum disease, November 14, 2002
By 
Pie Orrea (Port Angeles, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 6 Minutes to Superior Dental Health (How to Protect Your Family in a Dental Disease Society) (Paperback)
As a former patient of Dr. Katayama, I can vouch for his obsession with gum disease. Interestingly, he seems to be able to find gum disease even in perfectly healthy patients. Could it possibly be because it is so lucretive to his practice to schedule thousands of dollars in unnecessary follow up visits? His book seems to undercut his business practices, so I am wagering that he secretly hopes none of his patients will get wind of it. Well written, but get a life Rodney. Just because you're paranoid about gums--or just a money grubber--doesn't mean that the whole world is infected with dental diseases.
