What Is LANAP?

LANAP (Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is a state-of-the-art, FDA-cleared laser treatment designed to treat moderate to severe gum disease without cutting or sutures. It uses the PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to precisely target and eliminate infected gum tissue while preserving healthy tissue, promoting natural healing, and stimulating bone regeneration.

Who Is a Good Candidate for LANAP?

LANAP is ideal for patients suffering from chronic periodontal disease who want a less invasive option than traditional surgery. It’s especially beneficial for those with diabetes, heart conditions, or those taking blood thinners. A consultation with our Brooklyn periodontist will determine if LANAP is right for you.
