If you’re struggling with gum disease, LANAP laser treatment in Concord & Lexington, MA, offers a modern, minimally invasive solution. Unlike traditional gum surgery that uses scalpels and sutures, the LANAP dental procedure utilizes laser technology to treat periodontal disease effectively. This advanced laser treatment targets and removes infected tissue while preserving healthy gum tissue, providing a more comfortable experience and faster recovery time. LANAP laser treatment is FDA-approved, backed by clinical research, and proven to promote bone regeneration and optimal periodontal health.
Traditional gum surgery typically involves cutting away infected gum tissue to access the root surface, followed by suturing. While effective, this process can cause significant gum recession, discomfort, and a more extended recovery period. In contrast, LANAP surgery is much less invasive. The laser targets explicitly diseased tissue and harmful bacteria without damaging healthy gum tissue, allowing for more precise treatment. This results in minimal gum recession, less pain, and faster healing times. For patients concerned about the side effects of traditional surgery, LANAP offers an excellent alternative with fewer complications.
One of the most compelling reasons to choose LANAP laser treatment over traditional methods is its ability to encourage natural healing and tissue regeneration. The laser technology stimulates the bone around the tooth, promoting new bone growth and reattachment of the gums to the teeth. In many cases, LANAP surgery can even save teeth that were previously deemed unsalvageable. Patients can expect long-term results with less gum recession, reduced sensitivity, and a lower risk of future infection. The LANAP dental procedure also offers a more predictable outcome regarding reducing pocket depth and improving gum health.
