Laser Gum Therapy & LANAP Procedure in Encino, CA

The LANAP laser treatment provides an innovative approach to addressing gum disease. This FDA-cleared, less invasive method employs the PerioLase® MVP-7™ laser to eliminate diseased tissue while encouraging the growth of healthy tissue, forming a shield against future bacterial spread. By precisely targeting inflammation, LANAP preserves surrounding healthy tissue, enabling natural recovery from persistent infections without the need for scalpels or stitches.

A Softer Approach to Healing Infected Soft Tissue

If you’re dealing with gum disease, you’re among the 42% of adults over 30 that have some form of gum disease. Gum disease can cause discomfort, tooth loss, and even impact your general well-being. Infected soft tissue and bacteria often appear darker than the vibrant, healthy pink of unaffected gums, signaling the presence of periodontal disease.

Our highly qualified dentist, Dr. Amir Jamsheed, is an expert in identifying and managing all phases of gum disease, providing thorough periodontitis care, including the advanced Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®).

Dr. Amir specialized in treating gum disease, caring, gentle skill, using our state-of-the-art LANAP machine.

The Difference Between Traditional Surgery and LANAP

The Difference Between Traditional Surgery and LANAP

Traditional surgery requires the use of scalpels to cut into the gums and perform the necessary procedure. Once the treatment is complete, stitches are used to seal the wound, stop bleeding, and prevent infection.

Recovery times with traditional gum surgery varies from patient to patient, but this is where the biggest difference between traditional surgery and LANAP can be measured.

LANAP is far more precise and gentle than a scalpel, thus the trauma to the gums is lessened. The surgery can be performed with far less damage to surrounding tissues. Less damage = less healing required.

LANAP has truly revolutionized modern dental care and allows us to perform surgery with far less pain and faster recovery times – every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Laser Gum Therapy

Laser gum therapy is a dental procedure that uses focused light energy (laser) to treat gum disease and other periodontal issues with precision and minimal invasiveness. Unlike traditional methods that involve scalpels and sutures, this technique employs a dental laser to target and remove infected gum tissue, bacteria, and tartar buildup while preserving healthy tissue. The laser’s high-energy beam sterilizes the treated area, reducing the risk of infection and promoting faster healing. This approach is particularly effective for conditions like gingivitis and periodontitis, offering patients a less painful alternative with reduced bleeding and swelling compared to conventional surgery.

Laser gum therapy can also stimulate tissue regeneration, helping to restore gum health and, in some cases, bone structure. Patients often experience shorter recovery times and less discomfort, making it an appealing option for those with gum disease or cosmetic concerns, such as gummy smiles. Additionally, the precision of lasers allows for tailored treatments, improving outcomes and patient comfort while minimizing the need for follow-up procedures.

How Much Does Laser Gum Therapy Cost?

The cost of the procedure will vary depending on your specific needs. Dr. Amir and our staff at Encino Dental Studio will perform a thorough examination of your needs and explain all of the potential treatment options to you before you receive a customized treatment plan which includes pricing.
