Laser Dentistry To Treat Advanced Gum Disease
In most cases of moderate to severe periodontal disease, Red Bank dentists recommend laser periodontal surgery. Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®) is a state-of-the-art procedure that removes inflamed or diseased tissue in a manner that does not disturb the teeth, bone, or healthy tissue.
LANAP® is a method of laser periodontal surgery that has been proven safe and effective enough to receive clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Our dentists are part of a select group of dental professionals who have undergone the rigorous training and certification process required to become license practitioners of LANAP®.
The Benefits of LANAP®:
- Minimal Pain – LANAP® does not use scalpels to cut and remove tissue from the gum line. Instead, a highly sophisticated laser is used to vaporize and remove infected tissue in a minimally painful manner.
- Less Bleeding – In addition to the absence of scalpels and other cutting instruments, LANAP® can actually cauterize your wounds and minimize any bleeding that may occur.
- Less Recession – While traditional periodontal surgery can require large amounts of tissue removal, LANAP® helps to preserve the gum line and minimize the occurrence of recession resulting from treatment.
- Faster Healing – The preservation of healthy tissue and the stimulation of bone and tissue regrowth allow LANAP® a quicker healing time than traditional periodontal surgery.
- Long Term Success – our dentists can use the laser to promote regrowth in areas that have been damaged by periodontal disease. This means that there is a reduced chance that tooth or bone loss will occur.
