Dentist in Surfside Beach

LANAP is a laser gum treatment protocol used as an alternative to conventional surgery to promote new bone growth, periodontal regeneration, and gum tissue reattachment while causing minimal discomfort in the patient. LANAP is approved by the FDA and its results are backed by scientific evidence. LANAP procedures for gum treatment have high success rates. These procedures target specific parts of the gums usually the source of the gum disease.

Benefits of LANAP

LANAP is minimally invasive and offers the benefits below:

  • Less pain
  • Less bleeding
  • Less sensitivity
  • Less gum loss
  • Less swelling
  • Very little downtime after treatment
  • Fewer post-operation infections
  • Promotes regeneration of supporting gum tissues
  • Faster healing

LANAP procedures do not interfere with healthy gum tissues which then makes the recovery much faster. Patients can resume their normal activities in no time. The PerioLase MVP-7 device used in the LANAP protocol is a free-running variable pulsed Nd:YAG dental laser that features digital technology with 7 pulse durations.

LANAP protocol uses the principle of no cut, no sew, no fear. A principle that was originally designed to help patients understand what the protocol involves. This principle helps in eliminating anxiety associated with dental procedures, especially for patients who have dental phobia.



With the LANAP protocol, we help many patients get the treatment they need.
