About LANAP®

What is LANAP®?

If you recently have been told that you have gum disease and need periodontal surgery, LANAP® or ‘Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure’ is a breakthrough and revolutionary new way of treating periodontal disease.

LANAP® treatments offer a truly cosmetic solution to gum disease, ensuring the maximum preservation of healthy tissues around the teeth compared to any other procedures requiring traditional gum access.

What can we treat

Why choose LANAP®

Guaranteed less recovery time

LANAP® is a minimally invasive dental procedure- no cutting or sewing means no down-time, you are back to your normal routine immediately after treatment.

Reduces inflammation and bleeding

The PerioLase® MVP-7™can remove 90% of the inflammation in your mouth after just one visit. Healthy gum tissue is left intact and only the bacteria is targeted by the laser.

Guaranteed Less Pain

LANAP® is non-invasive (no cut, no stitch, no blood) and virtually pain-free.

No gum line recession

LANAP®is both a medical and a cosmetic procedure and does not lower the level of the gum line like traditional gum surgery

Tried, trusted and revolutionary dental technique.

The LANAP laser is non-invasive and does not interfere with any disease or medication.

Retains & preserves your natural teeth and gumline

Our focus is to retain and keep your natural teeth and reverse the effects of gum disease.

Guaranteed fewer treatments

Traditional gum surgery normally consists of 4 or more appointments with follow ups. LANAP® can successfully treat periodontitis in 1 to 2 treatments.

Additional Benefits

Recent research has shown that LANAP may reduce your CRP (21) and lower a factor called ``glycatedhemoglobin`` (HbA1c) which can reduce the risk of diabetes and, if you are diabetic, greatly increase your life expectancy.

The LANAP® Process

01

Laser treatment is usually completed in 1-2 treatments

02

The laser selectively targets and removes bacteria and diseased tissue from the pocket by the absorption of laser energy.

03

Ultrasonic scalers, as small as the laser, are then inserted into the pocket. Sound waves will break up the hardened tartar and other debris from the surface of the tooth.

04

The laser is then inserted once more to remove any remaining diseased tissue at the bottom of the pocket as well as sterilise& seal the tissues to ensure healthy gum attachment

05

The recovery is virtually pain-free and bloodless.
