What Is LANAP Laser Gum Surgery?

LANAP is an advanced laser-assisted procedure treating periodontal (gum) disease by precisely targeting and removing diseased tissue while preserving healthy gums. Unlike traditional gum surgery, which involves cutting and sutures, LANAP uses a specialized PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to remove bacteria and infected tissue while stimulating gum regeneration. LANAP offers significantly less pain than traditional gum surgery with minimal downtime. Patients experience faster recovery and less bleeding compared to conventional treatments. Most patients return to normal activities within 24 hours, compared to the weeks of recovery often needed after traditional gum surgery.

Key Benefits of LANAP Treatment:

Minimally Invasive: No incisions, no stitches.
Faster Healing: Patients recover more quickly than with traditional surgery.
Reduced Pain and Discomfort: Less trauma to the gums means minimal post-procedure discomfort.
Preserves Natural Teeth: LANAP can help save teeth that might otherwise require extraction.
Safe for Patients with Health Conditions: Ideal for patients with diabetes, hemophilia, or those on blood thinners.
