Aliso Viejo, CA dentist offers the LANAP laser treatment procedure for patients with periodontal disease

A diagnosis of periodontal disease may not seem like a big deal to most patients, but it is important for them to know the extent of damage this condition can cause. Dr. Claire Cho of Dental Health and Aesthetics Center advises patients to take good care of their smile, as the development of periodontal disease can be traumatic for the teeth, gums, and bone. In fact, once this condition develops, it cannot be cured, only treated and controlled. At our facility, we provide Aliso Viejo, California area patients with a solution that can address periodontal disease: the LANAP periodontal procedure. This laser treatment is performed to treat periodontal disease with precision.

What is the LANAP procedure?

Instead of undergoing extensive and invasive procedures such as scaling and root planing to treat the later stages of periodontitis, the LANAP procedure is much more comfortable. LANAP uses lasers to perform gum surgery while eradicating bacteria in the mouth and treating the infection right at the source. This procedure is:

• More comfortable than conventional treatments
• Done with reduced pain and discomfort
• Performed in a way that does not require pain medications after the treatment
• Extremely precise
• Best for maintaining as much healthy tissue as possible in the mouth
• Performed without the use of scalpels, drills, and other common dental instruments

Patients who have been diagnosed with mild to moderate periodontal disease may find that they are a great candidate for the LANAP laser procedure during their consultation visit with our team.
