Arestin vs. periochip

My second patient of the day was a class V recall from 4 months ago. I got him done in 1 hour! GO ME!! Kami suggested that I use Arestin in one area of his mouth that wasn't healing, but he'd had periochip placed a while ago by a student and it made him dizzy so he was very aprehensive about using any medicines. I explained that Aresin wasn't the same medicine as periochip, but he still didn't really want it. He asked if he stepped up his homecare over the next 4 months to see if he can improve it on his own. He said that if the pocket didn't improve he'd let me place Arestin. Silly guy!
