When your gums begin to weaken, the health of your entire smile can be affected. You may notice bleeding, tenderness, or changes around your teeth, signs that your smile may need professional attention.
The LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) uses advanced laser technology to address infection beneath the gums with precision. Dr. Fava, Dr. Schoenebeck, Dr. Cutler, and Dr. Klass use this modern technique to treat affected areas and promote a healthier environment for your gums.
Restore the Health of Your Gums
Remove Harmful Bacteria
When bacteria collect beneath your gums, they can slowly weaken the structures that support your teeth. LANAP® laser treatment helps remove this infection so your gums can begin healing again.
Preserve Healthy Gums
Healthy gum tissue is essential for keeping your teeth stable. We focus only on infected areas, helping protect the healthy tissue that supports your teeth.
Encourage Natural Healing
When gums become inflamed, they often struggle to recover on their own. Our advanced laser treatment stimulates your body’s natural healing response, helping your gums begin to repair and reattach around your teeth.
Strengthen Tooth Support
As gum support weakens, teeth can begin to shift or loosen. By restoring healthier gum attachment, this treatment helps keep your teeth stable and protect the foundation of your oral health.
Advanced Laser Treatment for Gum Health
LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an FDA-cleared laser treatment designed to address advanced gum infection with exceptional precision. Using a specialized dental laser, Dr. Fava, Dr. Schoenebeck, Dr. Cutler, and Dr. Klass can reach the deeper areas beneath the gums where infection develops while preserving the healthy tissue around your teeth.
This targeted approach allows treatment to focus only on the affected areas while maintaining as much of your natural gum structure as possible. For many patients, LANAP® offers a modern alternative for treating advanced gum infection with a more comfortable experience and a smoother recovery.
