If you are one of the millions of Americans diagnosed with gum disease, you may be a good candidate for laser gum treatment with the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®). Dr. Rodney Horvat, and Dr. Scott Cohen and the team at Periodontics & Implant Dentistry provide gum disease treatment in Winter Park, FL and use the innovative laser technique to ensure positive outcomes. LANAP® removes and kills the bacteria deep within the gums and leaves healthy tissue behind. Patients benefit from less discomfort and fast healing time as a result.
LANAP® is the only FDA-cleared laser protocol for the treatment of gum disease, and is the only laser gum disease treatment backed by science, research, and human histological studies. When you are seeing gum disease treatment, make sure you are working with a doctor certified in using the PerioLase® MVP-7™.
Benefits of LANAP®
Here are some of the top benefits of laser gum treatment with LANAP®:
Fast Healing Times and Less Downtime
This minimally-invasive procedure supports tissue healing and gum tissue regeneration, so you recover much faster than you would with traditional gum surgery.
Less Discomfort
Patients report little to no discomfort with laser gum surgery. Any minor discomfort is easy to manage with pain medication.
Minimal or No Gum Recession
Receding gums are often a negative outcome of traditional gum surgery. With LANAP®, patients experience little or no gum recession because the procedure does not require going lower than the gum line.
Reduced Inflammation and Bleeding
This procedure can remove up to 90 percent of the inflammation in your mouth after just one visit. It is a targeted treatment that kills bacteria and causes minimal bleeding and inflammation. Less bleeding means less complications.
Preserve Natural Teeth
Laser gum treatment can save your natural teeth and has been scientifically proven to regenerate bone around the teeth.
Safe with Zero Contraindications
LANAP® has been deemed a safe laser procedure by the medical community and has zero contraindications, which means it will not interfere with any medications you are taking or pre-existing diseases and health problems.
