LANAP™ Replaces Cut-And-Sew Periodontal Treatment

New Digital Laser Technology Gently and Effectively Restores Diseased Gums

Three out of four Americans suffer from the ill effects of gum disease and millions are in danger of losing their teeth. Yet only three to five percent of those afflicted with gum disease seek treatment -- likely because traditional scalpel/suture flap surgery scares them away. Who can blame them?

The world’s first patented and FDA-approved Laser Periodontal Therapy™ will change the way you feel about gum disease treatment. Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure™ (LANAP™) gives patients a no-cut, no-sew alternative to conventional gum surgery, with fewer office visits and an abbreviated recovery time. You can drive, go back to work, or even go to lunch immediately after your treatment!

LANAP™ employs a PerioLase dental laser, rather than a scalpel, to remove infection in the pocket between the tooth and gum, so the procedure is less invasive and far more comfortable than the old method. The same laser also seals the cleansed site with a blood clot, which results in faster healing and no need for stitches. LANAP™ enables doctors to preserve more healthy bone and tissue, so it's a conservative procedure. In other words, we can now eradicate infection without compromising tooth structure.

Studies show that LANAP™ even regenerates, or restores, diseased root surfaces and reconnects tissues in 100 percent of cases. Known as a "biocompatible" therapy, LANAP enlists your body's healing mechanisms.

Some patients with gum disease, a chronic bacterial infection, bleed when they brush or floss, or they suffer from persistent halitosis (bad breath); others may have loose or wobbly teeth. You may show some symptoms...or none at all. Visit our Cerritos dental office now to find out if you are at risk and if LANAP™ therapy is right for you.

Testimonial

I was very impressed with the knowledge base of both the dentist and hygienist. I also liked that the entire staff used technology and other aids to diagnose, evaluate and demonstrate my situation. My teeth-cleaning treatment and crown preparation were virtually painless. My total experience with the practice, including the front office staff was very satisfactory.
