LANAP® Laser Gum Surgery in Sugar Land, TX
Traditional treatment options for gum disease often involve cutting the gum tissue or extracting teeth, which many patients find intimidating. That’s where the LANAP® Protocol comes in—a laser-based, minimally invasive treatment designed to gently treat gum disease and help you regain a healthy smile with reduced discomfort.
What is the LANAP® Protocol?
The LANAP® protocol is a scientifically proven, FDA-cleared treatment that uses the PerioLase® MVP-7™, a specialized dental laser operating at a specific wavelength. This laser targets and destroys the bacteria causing gum disease while preserving healthy tissue. The procedure involves threading a tiny fiber—about the width of three human hairs—between the gum and tooth to reach deep pockets of infection without cutting or suturing.
