Locations for a periodontist Melbourne Australia?

Its to easy to find a peridonist Tactile Fremitus, known by many other names including pectoral fremitus, tactile vocal fremitus, or just vocal fremitus, is a vibration felt on the patient's chest during low frequency vocalization. Commonly, the patient is asked to repeat a phrase while the examiner feels for vibrations by placing a hand over the patient's chest or back.The reason for increased fremitus in a consolidated lung is the fact that the sound waves travel faster through a solid (the consolidation) than a gas (aerated lung). Conversely, the reason for decreased fremitus in a pleural effusion (or any pathology separating the pleura), is that this increased space between the pleura acts as a barrier to the sound waves.
