Dr. Dan Holtzclaw Develops and Publishes Minimally Invasive Technique for the Treatment of Iatrogenic Nerve Injuries Secondary to Dental Implant Treatment

AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dr. Dan Holtzclaw, Chief Clinical Officer of DIA Dental Implant Centers, has recently published a new technique documenting the use of placental based growth factors for the treatment of nerve injuries related to poor placement of dental implants. According to Dr. Holtzclaw, "At our DIA Dental Implant Center locations in Austin and San Antonio, we occasionally see patients that have experienced nerve damage following dental implant treatment by providers at other clinics. These patients are coming to us for help as their dentists have provided no options for the treatment of their nerve injury. Unfortunately, these patients are often left with life altering neurosensory deficits that affect daily activities such as speaking, kissing, shaving, and smiling. Utilizing my extensive background in placental growth factor research over the past 13 years, and existing published data from the medical field, I have developed and implemented a minimally invasive technique that has helped improve the nerve conditions for many of these patients."    

Dr. Dan Holtzclaw recently published this new technique for the treatment of nerve injuries related to the iatrogenic placement of dental implants in the September 2018 issue of the Journal of Implant & Advanced Clinical Dentistry (http://www.jiacd.com) and lectured about the technique at the recent 2018 annual meeting of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry in Dallas, Texas. Dr. Holtzclaw will be presenting additional lectures about this technique in New York City and Los Angeles, California.
