LANAP is a gentle, minimally invasive option to traditional gum surgery. LANAP uses advanced laser technology instead of traditional methods that require incisions and stitches to remove diseased tissue and preserve healthy gums. This technique minimizes the trauma to surrounding tissues, which results in less discomfort, swelling, and bleeding after surgery. The recovery time for LANAP patients is usually faster and more comfortable than traditional gum surgery. This allows them to return to their normal daily routines with little disruption.

It is able to target bacteria and diseased tissue with accuracy and precision. Laser energy is calibrated to remove infected and bacteria-infected tissue selectively while leaving healthy tissues untouched. This targeted treatment ensures that the infection is treated thoroughly, which promotes optimal healing and tissue renewal. Dr. Patel is able to customize treatment by controlling the intensity and depth of laser energy. This allows her to meet the specific needs of each patient and the severity of their gum disease.

LANAP not only removes diseased tissue but also stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms to promote the regeneration of healthy bone and gum tissue. Laser energy stimulates stem cells and growth factors, which are crucial for tissue regeneration and repair. This regeneration process restores the integrity and structure of the periodontium. It leads to an improved attachment of the gums, reduced gum receding, and better periodontal health. LANAP promotes the long-term function and stability of teeth and gums. This is beneficial for patients suffering from gum disease.

LANAP has been associated with less discomfort after surgery and faster healing compared to traditional gum surgery. Laser energy seals nerve endings and blood vessels as it removes the diseased tissue. Patients experience less bleeding, swelling, and pain after the procedure. Many patients can resume their normal activities in a shorter time frame. By minimizing the traumatization of the gums and tissues surrounding them, LANAP promotes faster tissue regeneration and healing. This allows patients to benefit from treatment sooner.

LANAP preserves as much healthy tissue as possible. Unlike traditional surgery that may remove healthy tissue in order to reach the diseased area, LANAP leaves the most healthy tissue intact. Laser energy targets only infected tissues and removes them, leaving healthy tissue unaffected. This conservative method helps to maintain the natural contours of the gums while minimizing the changes in the appearance of your smile. By preserving healthy tissues, LANAP promotes a conservative, patient-friendly treatment of gum disease, ensuring optimal results with minimal impact on the appearance of the smile.

LANAP effectively sterilizes the treated area. This helps to promote a healthy and clean healing environment. Laser energy kills bacteria and other pathogens in periodontal pockets. This helps to prevent the recurrence and complications of gum disease. LANAP is a proven method for treating gum disease. It eliminates infection and promotes tissue healing. Dr. Patel, our team, and the LANAP system take all necessary precautions to ensure that patients are protected from infection and receive optimal healing after LANAP treatment. This gives them peace of mind in their journey of oral health.
