Lanap Protocol Gum Disease Treatment

No Cut, No Sew, No Fear — FDA-Cleared Laser Therapy to Save Your Gums & Natural Teeth

Gum disease can chip away at your confidence and put your natural teeth at risk. Bleeding gums, persistent bad breath and loose teeth are common signs that your periodontal health needs urgent care. Our clinic is proud to offer the certified LANAP® protocol, an advanced laser treatment trusted by patients worldwide.

Equipped with an ultra-fine laser fiber — just three times the width of a human hair — the PerioLase® MVP-7™ laser targets infection deep in gum pockets with pinpoint accuracy. Right after treatment, you will notice less bleeding and fresher breath immediately. Thanks to its gentle nature, you can resume driving, working and daily activities right away, with no long downtime.

How LANAP® Works

LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is the only laser periodontal treatment FDA-cleared and clinically proven to regenerate lost gum tissue, periodontal ligaments and alveolar bone caused by periodontitis.
 
This treatment relies entirely on the PerioLase® MVP-7™ professional dental laser. Its customized laser energy selectively acts on bacteria, tartar and inflamed tissue, leaving healthy gum and tooth structures untouched. Beyond removing infection, the laser stimulates natural tissue regeneration, helping reattach gums firmly to tooth roots. It is a complete, standardized clinical protocol, not just a simple laser auxiliary technique, ensuring stable and long-lasting treatment outcomes.
 
Additionally, the same laser system supports the LAPIP™ protocol, which effectively treats loose or failing dental implants caused by peri-implant inflammation.

Patient Benefits

✅ Minimally invasive: No cut, No sew, No fear
 
Laser energy replaces scalpels and stitches, eliminating the fear of traditional surgery.
 
✅ Less pain & discomfort
 
Patients experience mild to no pain during and after the procedure, far more comfortable than conventional periodontal surgery.
 
✅ Ultra-fast healing & minimal downtime
 
Most patients can return to work, driving and daily routines immediately after treatment, no long rest required.
 
✅ Little to no gum recession
 
Since gum tissue is not cut, your natural gum line and smile appearance are well-preserved.
 
✅ Reduce inflammation, bleeding and bad breath
 
Target harmful inflammatory bacteria effectively, relieving swollen, bleeding gums and persistent halitosis quickly.
 
✅ Save natural teeth
 
Even teeth labeled “hopeless” by traditional treatment can be saved with LANAP®, keeping your natural teeth intact.
 
✅ Safe for medically compromised patients
 
Ideal for patients with diabetes, HIV, hemophilia, or those taking blood thinners like Plavix and aspirin. No need to stop regular medication before treatment.
 
✅ Lower risk of post-operative infection & swelling
 
Precise laser operation reduces surgical trauma, greatly cutting down swelling, sensitivity and infection risks.

FAQ

LANAP® is best suited for patients with moderate to severe gum disease. It is also the perfect alternative for:
 
  • Patients who fear traditional scalpel periodontal surgery;
  • Patients taking blood thinners or other long-term medications;
  • Medically compromised patients (diabetes, hemophilia, etc.).

Gum disease is not just an oral problem. It raises the risk of coronary heart disease, fatal heart attack, stroke, respiratory diseases, diabetes, osteoporosis, pregnancy complications and even some cancers. Timely treatment protects both your teeth and your whole-body health.

Yes. We adopt the matched LAPIP™ protocol with the same PerioLase® MVP-7™ laser. With adjusted laser settings, it removes pathogens around implants, relieves inflammation and stabilizes loose implants effectively.

With standard post-treatment maintenance and good daily oral hygiene, LANAP® delivers long-term stable results. Regular professional cleaning and follow-up checks are key to maintaining healthy gums.
