By using a state-of-the-art laser, they are capable of treating gum disease and providing aesthetic gum recontouring in a minimally invasive fashion \u2013 no cutting and no suturing required. Better yet, the recovery period is greatly sped up, and healthy tissue regenerates at a much faster pace!<\/p>\n

We\u2019re proud to feature LANAP as a state-of-the-art method for treating periodontal (gum) disease. This modern laser is a big improvement over the traditional tools, allowing our doctors to not only selectively remove diseased areas of tissue, but also encourage the growth of healthy tissue as a replacement! The treatment process is also much more minimally invasive as a whole, featuring the following improvements:<\/p>\n
The height of the gum tissue around the teeth is preserved at a much greater level.
\nUncomfortable post-operative symptoms (oral swelling, inflammation, bleeding, sensitivity, etc) are greatly reduced, and patients are likely to recover from the service at a much greater speed.
\nSterilization is instant with the LANAP laser, virtually eliminating the need for sutures.<\/p>\n
Instead of multiple, time-consuming appointments, patients can be finished with their care in a much swifter timeframe, allowing them to return to their regular routine faster.<\/p>\n
How does LANAP work? It\u2019s simple \u2013 Dr. Oshidar or Dr. Rodiguez will use the laser to eliminate infected gum tissue that has pulled away from your tooth roots. After getting rid of calculus deposits, a second pass with the laser eliminates remaining bacteria and jumpstarts the regeneration process. In many cases, LANAP can rescue natural teeth that would have otherwise required extraction down the road!<\/p>\n
