Laser Technology Minimizes Pain and Recovery Time

Dental technology continues to evolve, and using lasers in treatments is among the latest innovations for specific dental procedures. Laser treatments, like LANAP, reduce chair time, minimize discomfort, and promote quicker healing. For many patients, laser technology also helps reduce anxiety by eliminating the need for traditional drills and incisions.

LANAP® Laser Treatment: Advanced Care for Effective Gum Disease Management

LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is a state-of-the-art laser therapy specifically designed to treat moderate to advanced gum disease known as periodontitis. This FDA-approved procedure is a breakthrough in periodontal care, providing an effective, minimally invasive solution for patients suffering from inflamed, infected, or damaged gum tissue.

Unlike traditional gum surgery, which involves cutting and stitching the gums, LANAP uses advanced laser technology to precisely target and remove harmful bacteria and diseased tissue while preserving healthy tissue. This approach minimizes discomfort, bleeding, and recovery time and stimulates the regrowth of bone and gum tissue around the teeth. Ideal for patients with gum disease symptoms like bleeding gums, receding gums, and loose teeth, LANAP provides a comfortable, efficient, and highly effective alternative to conventional treatments, supporting long-term gum health and a healthier smile.

LANAP is an FDA-approved laser procedure designed specifically to treat periodontitis, a serious form of gum disease. Unlike traditional methods that require cutting and suturing the gums, LANAP uses a focused laser to target and eradicate bacteria and infected tissue without damaging healthy gum tissue. This innovative approach minimizes discomfort, reduces bleeding, and promotes faster recovery, as well as the regrowth of bone and soft tissue around the teeth.

LANAP offers multiple benefits over traditional gum disease treatments. This minimally invasive procedure precisely removes infected gum tissue without cutting or suturing, resulting in less pain, reduced bleeding, and a shorter recovery period. LANAP also stimulates natural bone regeneration around the teeth, helping to preserve your smile and prevent further damage. With LANAP, you can achieve healthier gums with less downtime, making it an ideal choice for treating moderate to advanced gum disease.

If you have been diagnosed with gum disease, LANAP could be a highly effective treatment option. It’s especially beneficial for patients seeking a less invasive alternative to conventional gum surgery or those concerned about lengthy recovery times. LANAP is suitable for most patients with mild to severe gum disease. Our team will thoroughly assess whether LANAP is the best option for your specific needs and goals.

While both LANAP and Solea utilize advanced laser technology to improve patient comfort and minimize invasiveness, they are designed for different dental treatments. LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) specifically targets gum disease, removing infected gum tissue and promoting bone regeneration around the teeth, making it ideal for treating periodontitis. In contrast, Solea is a versatile laser used primarily for cavity fillings, soft tissue adjustments, and other general dental procedures without requiring drills or anesthesia. Each laser is specialized to provide the best outcomes for different dental needs, ensuring patients receive optimal, comfortable care tailored to their treatment.
