Laser-Assisted Gum Treatment
LANAP allows for greater accuracy in treatment due to its stable & precise cutting ability. This means shorter recovery time, less pain & control over bleeding. When treating already sensitive areas such as gums affected by periodontal disease, this is especially helpful, as patients need not fear exacerbating their condition.
LANAP controls bleeding by closing, or cauterizing, the affected area & also eliminates harmful bacteria buildup, meaning there is far less chance of infection. In addition, LANAP can remove plaque buildup around the treated area, further reducing the chance for infection & allowing for a smoother healing process.
This minimally invasive procedure has proven so effective that results can be predicted with a high level of accuracy & a low probability of recurring symptoms. Talk to your dentist today to see if LANAP is right for you.
