Why is LANAP® better than conventional gum surgery?
Patients with periodontal disease have two primary treatment options: traditional gum surgery or LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure).
Involves surgically folding back the gums with a scalpel to expose the tooth roots and jawbone. Once accessible, tartar, plaque, and diseased tissue are meticulously removed. Any bone defects may be treated with grafting materials or reshaping techniques. Finally, the gums are sutured back into place, and healing begins—a process that often requires multiple visits and significant recovery time.
Uses advanced laser technology to target bacteria and diseased tissue without cutting or suturing the gums. The laser penetrates beneath the gum surface, eliminating infection while preserving healthy tissue. After removing calculus and plaque, the laser seals the area and stimulates stem cells, encouraging the regeneration of collagen, bone, and connective tissue around the tooth root.
LANAP® procedures are FDA-approved, minimally invasive, and usually completed in just 30–45 minutes per treated area, often requiring only one visit to restore gum health. When performed by LANAP®-certified clinicians, patients typically experience less discomfort, quicker healing, and long- lasting results.
By using PerioLase® for the LANAP® procedure, patients benefit from:

Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to help patients relax during complex dental procedures or for those with sensitive teeth or dental anxiety. Various levels of sedation are available, including mild, moderate, and deep sedation. These sedatives work by calming the central nervous system, reducing conscious awareness, and ensuring a more comfortable dental experience.
Preventive dentistry focuses on maintaining oral health and preventing dental problems before they occur. Through regular check-ups, cleanings, and early intervention, preventive dentistry helps avoid issues like cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss, saving patients time and money in the long run.
Oral cancer screening is a vital preventive procedure that helps detect early signs of oral cancer, including unusual growths, sores, or changes in tissues. Regular screenings can significantly improve the chances of successful treatment by identifying cancer at an early, more treatable stage. This quick and non-invasive procedure is essential for maintaining overall oral health and ensuring early intervention.
Oral pathology involves the diagnosis and study of diseases affecting the mouth, gums, and surrounding tissues. If abnormal growths or lesions are detected during a dental exam, a biopsy may be performed to collect tissue samples for further analysis. This procedure helps identify whether a condition is benign or malignant, ensuring timely treatment and preventing serious oral health issues through early detection.
