Understanding LANAP Therapy

LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is like having a sophisticated microscope and healing tool in one. This FDA-cleared technology can tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy gum tissue, similar to how your body naturally knows which cells need attention. Unlike traditional surgery with scalpels and stitches, LANAP uses precisely calibrated laser light to:

  • Promote bone regeneration
  • Target only the diseased tissue
  • Preserve healthy gums
  • Stimulate natural healing

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have questions about laser-assisted periodontal therapy, we’ve got answers.

LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an FDA-approved laser treatment for gum disease. It uses a dental laser to gently remove diseased tissue and promote healing without the need for cutting or sutures.

Our periodontist uses a laser to target and remove infected gum tissue while leaving healthy tissue unharmed. The laser also helps reduce bacteria and stimulate the natural healing process.

The cost of LANAP varies based on the extent of periodontal disease, the number of teeth treated, and your specific clinical situation. Contact our office for a consultation so we can provide you with a personalized treatment plan and cost estimate.

LANAP is minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated. Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure.  

LANAP coverage depends on your specific insurance plan and whether it’s deemed medically necessary for your periodontal condition, though it may be covered more readily than cosmetic procedures. Contact us to verify your insurance benefits and discuss payment options that work for you.

The procedure typically involves two 2-hour sessions or one 4-hour session. The laser is used to remove diseased tissue, clean the area, and promote healing.
