Laser vs Traditional Periodontal Surgery
The Benefits of Periodontal Laser Gum Surgery (LANAP) Over Traditional Gum Surgery
Are you struggling with gum disease and searching for a less invasive, more comfortable treatment option? At our dental office in Pawleys Island, we proudly offer LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) as an advanced solution for treating moderate to severe periodontal disease. Patients from Murrells Inlet, Garden City, Surfside Beach, and Myrtle Beach are discovering the benefits of this innovative procedure every day.
What is LANAP and How Does it Work?
LANAP is a minimally invasive laser gum surgery designed to treat periodontal disease without the need for scalpels or sutures. Using a specialized dental laser, we can target and remove infected gum tissue while preserving healthy tissue, reducing discomfort, and promoting faster healing. The procedure also stimulates the regeneration of bone and tissue around your teeth, helping to restore your oral health.
LANAP vs. Traditional Gum Surgery
Traditional periodontal surgery often involves cutting and sutures to access and treat infected areas, leading to longer recovery times and more post-operative discomfort. LANAP, on the other hand, uses laser technology to precisely target infection and bacteria, leaving healthy tissue untouched. This means:
- Less Pain and Discomfort: The laser minimizes trauma to the gums.
- Faster Healing: Reduced need for sutures leads to quicker recovery.
- Preservation of Healthy Tissue: Only diseased tissue is removed.
- Reduced Risk of Infection: The laser sterilizes the treatment area.
- Better Long-Term Results: LANAP promotes natural regeneration of gum and bone tissue.
What to Expect During Your LANAP Procedure
When you visit our office for LANAP treatment, your comfort and care are our top priorities. The procedure typically takes one to two visits, depending on the severity of your gum disease. Here’s what you can expect:
- Comprehensive Evaluation: We’ll assess your gums and determine if LANAP is the right option for you.
- Laser Treatment: Using the PerioLase MVP-7 laser, we’ll gently remove infected tissue and bacteria.
- Healing and Recovery: Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume normal activities within a day or two.
