LANAP

LANAP, or Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, is a type of gum surgery that uses a specialized laser to remove bacteria and diseased tissue from the gums. The laser is so precise that it can distinguish between healthy and diseased tissue, leaving healthy tissue intact and promoting the regeneration of new tissue. This treatment offers a variety of benefits, including less pain and discomfort than traditional gum surgery, faster healing times, and a reduced risk of infection.

LANAP Benefits

Minimally invasive: LANAP is less invasive than traditional gum surgery, as it uses a specialized laser to treat gum disease. This means that LANAP patients typically experience less pain and discomfort during and after the procedure.

Faster healing times: LANAP patients typically experience faster healing times than those who undergo traditional gum surgery. This is because the laser used in LANAP is less traumatic to the gums and tissues, allowing them to heal more quickly.

Reduced risk of infection: Because LANAP is less invasive than traditional gum surgery, there is a reduced risk of infection. Additionally, the laser used in LANAP can kill bacteria on contact, further reducing the risk of infection.

Preservation of healthy tissue: LANAP is designed to target only diseased tissue, leaving healthy tissue intact. This promotes the regeneration of new, healthy tissue and helps to maintain the natural appearance of the gums.

LAPIP

LAPIP, or Laser-Assisted Peri-Implantitis Procedure, is a minimally invasive laser treatment used to treat peri-implantitis, a condition that can occur when there is inflammation and infection around dental implants. Like LANAP, LAPIP uses a specialized laser to target and remove bacteria and diseased tissue while preserving healthy tissue. This promotes the regeneration of new tissue and can help save the implant from further damage or potential loss.

LAPIP offers several benefits over traditional peri-implantitis treatments, including a minimally invasive approach that requires no incisions or sutures, reduced discomfort and pain, and faster healing times. Additionally, LAPIP can help prevent the need for more extensive implant treatments, such as implant removal or replacement, which can be costly and time-consuming.

Osseous Surgery

Osseous Surgery, also known as flap surgery, is another type of gum surgery that involves lifting the gums to remove plaque and tartar buildup, as well as any damaged tissue. The gums are then stitched back in place to promote the regeneration of healthy tissue. This procedure is particularly useful for patients with advanced gum disease or who have experienced significant bone loss around their teeth. It can also help to reduce the size of periodontal pockets, which are spaces between the teeth and gums where bacteria can accumulate and cause further damage.

Both LANAP and Osseous Surgery are performed by our skilled periodontists, who have extensive training and experience in the latest periodontal techniques. Our team is committed to providing personalized care that meets the unique needs and goals of each patient, and we work closely with you to ensure your comfort and satisfaction throughout the treatment process.
