Lanap®Laser Gum Treatment

LANAP® Laser Gum Treatment
A Modern, Minimally Invasive Approach to Treating Gum Disease

At Lowell Street Periodontal & Implant Surgery, we’re proud to offer the LANAP® protocol — an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive laser treatment for gum disease. Unlike traditional periodontal surgery, LANAP uses a specialized dental laser to selectively target and remove infected tissue while preserving healthy gum structure. This means less pain, less bleeding, and a faster recovery.

Why Patients Choose LANAP®

• Minimally invasive — no scalpels, no sutures
• Faster healing and reduced post-operative discomfort
• Helps regenerate bone around teeth affected by gum disease
• Can be used to stabilize teeth that might otherwise be lost
• Shorter treatment time and fewer appointments
• Safe for patients with certain medical conditions or medications

How LANAP® Works

LANAP uses the PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to gently remove bacteria and diseased tissue from the pockets around your teeth. Once the area is cleaned, the laser helps create a stable environment where the gums can reattach to the teeth and the body can begin healing naturally. Many patients are able to return to activities the same day.

Who Is a Candidate?

LANAP is ideal for patients with:
• Moderate to severe periodontal disease
• Bleeding gums, loose teeth, or deep periodontal pockets
• Gum disease who want to avoid traditional surgery
• Medical conditions that make surgery or sutures more difficult
• Busy schedules or patients seeking a faster recovery

We evaluate every patient individually to determine whether LANAP is the best option for restoring gum health.
