LANAP® GUM TREATMENT SERVICESNaples, FL
Periodontal disease nearly half of Americans by the age of 30. LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) provides treatment using the PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to regenerate lost bone and tissue.
Dr. Rodion uses this advanced laser technology to avoid Periodontal Disease from eating away at gums and tooth-supporting bone.
Benefits of the LANAP gum treatment?
The LANAP gum treatment offers many benefits over traditional techniques that require cutting and drilling, including:
Quicker recovery time
Because the LANAP treatment requires no incisions or drilling, you can resume your normal activities within 24 hours.
Less pain
The LANAP treatment is gentler than traditional techniques. Without cutting, the treatment doesn’t require stitches.
Bone and tissue regeneration
By emitting laser energy, the PerioLase® MVP-7 device can help stimulate your body’s natural healing response to regenerate bone and tissue.
Lower risk of gum recession
Lasers are more precise than scalpels, drills, and other cutting tools, allowing Dr. Rodion to preserve as much of your healthy gum tissue as possible.
Decreased pocket depth
When plaque penetrates beneath the gum line, it forms small pockets. The pockets grow as periodontal disease progresses, causing your gums to loosen their grip on your teeth. The LANAP® treatment sterilizes these pockets of plaque to significantly reduce their depth and restore your gum health.
Can the LANAP® gum treatment fix receding gums?
The LANAP® gum treatment can slow the progression of gum recession. The procedure stimulates tissue growth around your tooth roots, reducing pain and sensitivity from receding gums. Dr. Rodion also performs gum grafting surgery to correct gum recession.
What can I expect from the LANAP® gum treatment?
First, Dr. Rodion administers an anesthetic to keep you comfortable during treatment. Next, he uses the PerioLase® device to emit laser energy into the space between your teeth and gums. He thoroughly cleans the pockets of plaque and the area around your tooth roots before sealing the gum line.
The treatment takes less than two hours, and you can typically drive yourself home after the procedure.
