Subject: [roots] Interesting dx

I saw this elderly lady a couple times before finalizing a dx of IP.  Her only complaint was chewing sensitivity of fleeting
duration on #2.  I verified this with fx detector.  Pulpal testing was normal.  There was a possibility of stress related
parafunctional activity, so I did a slight occlusal refinement to remove any interferences and scheduled her for a followup
consultation a week later (today).  Nothing had changed and given that this symptom has been present for a few months with
no improvement, I dx'd IP and recommended rct.

One of the cool things about the TDO website is that I can see which offices are looking at their final reports online.
This particular doc is one of the regulars, (I was even able to see that he was looking at this stuff at 5am-what better
morning breakfast reading material than my work?  LOL), so I go to a little more effort to put a few more labelled photos
on the website for his reading pleasure - Mark Dreyer, DMD
