What is LANAP?

LANAPÂŽ, or Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure – is a minimally invasive laser treatment for gum disease. In this procedure, a specialized laser called PerioLase MVP-7 is used to precisely remove the infected and diseased gum tissue and stimulate bone generation.

Nowadays, this technology is becoming the most standard practice among dental professionals and is widely recognized for its effectiveness.
This high-tech dental laser, similar to the width of three human hairs, gently treats the affected area without any stitches or cutting in the gum line. LANAP® is an FDA-cleared laser treatment that creates a “true regeneration” of bones and tissues lost to gum disease.
