Compare LANAP and Biolase Laser Treatments for Gum Disease

Understanding LANAP: A Modern Approach to Gum Disease Therapy

LANAP, a laser therapy of the highest quality, is designed to treat gum disease effectively and promote tissue regeneration. This minimally invasive procedure uses laser energy to remove bacteria and diseased tissue from periodontal pockets while stimulating the regeneration of healthy gum tissue. LANAP has several advantages over traditional gum surgeries, including:

• Minimally Invasive: LANAP offers a minimally-invasive alternative to traditional gingival surgery. It does not require any incisions or stitches. Laser energy targets and removes only the diseased tissue, leaving healthy tissue unaffected. This results in less pain, swelling, and trauma for patients.
• Precision and Accuracy: The LANAP laser is a remarkable tool for treating infected tissue while preserving healthy tissue around it. LANAP targets the bacteria and the diseased tissue to ensure that the infection is completely removed without causing damage to the supporting structures or gums.
• Stimulates Tissue Regeneration: LANAP not only removes bacteria but also promotes the body's healing response. This results in the regeneration of healthy bone and gum tissue. This regenerative action helps rebuild the attachment of the gums to the teeth over time, improving periodontal stability and health.
• Reduced Discomfort and Faster Recovery: LANAP has a reduced level of discomfort after surgery and faster recovery times compared to conventional gum surgery. No incisions are made and no sutures are used, so patients will experience less bleeding, swelling, and pain after the procedure.
• Preservation of Healthy Tissue: LANAP preserves the maximum amount of healthy tissue. This is one of its key advantages. By removing only diseased tissue and focusing on the affected areas, LANAP reduces the trauma caused to the surrounding structures and gums. This preserves the natural appearance of the smile.
  

Biolase Laser: An Effective Tool for Periodontal Treatment

Biolase Laser, another advanced laser technology, is used to treat gum disease and other dental problems. This tool is a versatile tool that offers many benefits for periodontal health, including:

• Precision and Versatility: Biolase Laser provides precise and controlled treatment for gum disease and oral conditions. Laser energy can be precisely targeted to specific areas in the mouth, providing a tailored treatment for each patient.
• Reduced Discomfort and Healing Time: Biolase Laser has a reduced healing time and less discomfort compared to other surgical techniques. Laser energy cauterizes nerve endings and blood vessels as it operates. This results in less pain, bleeding, and swelling for the patient both during and after the surgery.
• Minimally Invasive Approach: Biolase Laser is a minimally invasive periodontal treatment. It works similarly to LANAP. Laser energy can reach hard-to-reach parts of the mouth, without incisions or stitches. This minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues and promotes faster healing.
• Promotes Tissue Regeneration: Biolase Laser stimulates tissue regeneration: Biolase Laser is shown to promote healing of the gums, and other oral tissues. Laser energy stimulates collagen production and other growth factors. This leads to new healthy tissue formation and improved periodontal hygiene.
• Versatile Applications. It can be used to treat gum disease as well as for other dental procedures such as cavity removal, gum shaping, and soft tissue surgeries. Its versatility makes this a valuable tool to enhance the health and appearance of your smile.
