One of the most prominent risks to your mouth is gum disease. It causes many issues, such as bad breath and tooth loss. Getting rid of gum disease and treating the tissue after it’s damaged can prove tricky. However, there is a new technique that allows for better results. LANAP laser surgery provides better results with less pain and recovery time. Find out if this procedure can help your advanced periodontal disease.
Before the development of LANAP surgery, invasive gum surgery was performed, which took time to complete and had long recovery times. However, this quick and easy surgery has proven effective for treating periodontal disease. You may benefit from LANAP laser treatment if you have advanced gum disease.
There are many reasons to choose this type of surgery over traditional surgery with a scalpel. For example, the LANAP uses a laser that is much more precise and simultaneously disinfects the gums to prevent further infection. This method also reduces the need to cut out healthy tissue and helps the patient heal faster. The process used to perform the surgery is very similar to the traditional method that requires the use of a scalpel.
The same technique is used just with a laser instead. The entire process doesn’t take as long to perform and allows the patient to regenerate bone in the area where there may be a loss. The procedure is typically performed in two visits that last a couple of hours each. Another factor to consider in deciding is how long the results last. This method offers more permanent results.
