At Pure Arts Dental Care, we are proud to offer LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) — a revolutionary, minimally invasive treatment for periodontal (gum) disease. If you’ve been told you need traditional gum surgery, LANAP® may provide a more comfortable, effective alternative with faster healing and long-term results.
Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults, but with advanced laser technology, it can be treated safely and precisely — without scalpels or sutures.
What Is LANAP®?
LANAP® is an FDA-cleared laser treatment designed specifically to target and eliminate infected gum tissue while preserving healthy tissue. Unlike traditional gum surgery, which often involves cutting and stitching, LANAP® uses a specialized dental laser to:
- Remove harmful bacteria
- Eliminate diseased tissue
- Stimulate bone regeneration
- Encourage natural healing
This innovative approach allows your body to repair and regenerate tissue naturally, helping to save teeth that might otherwise be lost.
Understanding Gum Disease
Periodontal disease begins when plaque and bacteria accumulate beneath the gumline, leading to inflammation and infection. Without treatment, gum disease can progress to:
- Gum recession
- Bone loss
- Loose teeth
- Tooth loss
- Chronic bad breath
Advanced gum disease doesn’t just affect your smile — it can impact your overall health, including heart health and systemic inflammation.
Early detection and treatment are essential, and LANAP® offers a powerful solution even for moderate to severe cases.
How LANAP® Works
The LANAP® procedure uses a highly specialized dental laser to selectively target infected tissue and bacteria while leaving healthy gum tissue untouched.
Step 1: Laser Removal of Infection
The laser energy removes harmful bacteria and diseased tissue from deep periodontal pockets.
Step 2: Ultrasonic Cleaning
Thorough cleaning removes hardened tartar (calculus) from the root surfaces.
Step 3: Regeneration & Clot Formation
The laser stimulates bone and tissue regeneration while creating a stable clot that seals the pocket — eliminating the need for stitches.
The result is reduced pocket depth, healthier gum attachment, and improved stability of your teeth.
Benefits of LANAP® Gum Treatment
Patients choose LANAP® for its numerous advantages over traditional gum surgery:
Minimally Invasive
No scalpels. No sutures. Less trauma to surrounding tissue.
Faster Healing
Most patients experience significantly shorter recovery times compared to conventional surgery.
Less Discomfort
Reduced bleeding, swelling, and post-operative pain.
Regenerates Bone and Tissue
LANAP® stimulates natural regeneration, helping restore support around your teeth.
Saves Natural Teeth
By treating infection and stabilizing bone, LANAP® can help prevent tooth loss.
Who Is a Candidate for LANAP®?
LANAP® is ideal for patients diagnosed with moderate to severe periodontal disease. You may be a candidate if you experience:
- Bleeding gums
- Gum recession
- Persistent bad breath
- Loose teeth
- Deep periodontal pockets
During your comprehensive periodontal evaluation at Pure Arts Dental Care, we will assess your gum health and determine whether LANAP® is the right solution for you.
Even patients with advanced bone loss often qualify for this treatment.
What to Expect During Recovery
One of the greatest advantages of LANAP® is its gentle recovery process. Most patients report:
- Minimal discomfort
- Little to no bleeding
- Reduced swelling
- Return to normal activities within 24 hours
Because the procedure preserves healthy tissue, healing is typically much more comfortable than traditional gum surgery.
We will provide clear aftercare instructions and monitor your healing to ensure optimal results.
