- Abstract
The article presents a response to a letter to the editor that commented on an article written by the authors. The article presented a cost-effective analysis of periodontal disease control. They clarify their reasoning for selecting the five treatment alternatives that were examined in the paper as well as why they included the cost of only one treatment session for some methods. They also add that patients with periodontal disease must make numerous decisions about treatment and modeling all of these possibilities would be impossible.
