Less Pain and Less Discomfort with Laser Dentistry

Reasons for LANAP Laser Treatment

Our office is proud to offer a no cut, no sew treatment for periodontal disease. Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP ) is a no cut Laser based treatment of periodontal and gum disease. LANAP laser treatment is the ONLY FDA cleared periodontal laser treatment. It is also supported by scientific and human histolical research. LANAP laser treatment is an alternative to “traditional surgery” used to treat periodontal disease. The laser uses a pulse technology with a wavelength that targets and removes only the damaged tissue in the mouth. The procedure only requires local anesthetic to treat the minor discomfort, and in most cases, patients experience little to no pain post procedure. The full mouth procedure is typically split into two 2-hour appointments. LANAP laser treatment has proven results, and has been in practice for over 10 years.
