Treating Periodontitis with LANAP

Treating periodontitis (advanced gum disease) with LANAP (laser-assisted new attachment procedure) involves these general steps:

  1. Local anesthesia is applied to the treatment area for your comfort.
  2. A thin fiber (the thickness of three human hairs) is inserted between the teeth and gums.
  3. The fiber delivers laser energy that eliminates diseased tissue and bacteria. Healthy tissue remains unharmed.
  4. Calculus is removed from the tooth surfaces below the gumline.
  5. The laser is used to sterilize the tissue and seal it around the tooth to facilitate healing.

When Gum Disease Affects Dental Implants We Use Lasers to Restore Your Oral Health

Inflammation of the tissues surrounding dental implants is called peri-implantitis. Without proper treatment, it can eventually lead to implant failure. Fortunately, Dr. Akhras can use the Periolase 7 to resolve the issue in a procedure called LAPIP (laser-assisted peri-implantitis protocol).

It follows the same essential steps as LANAP, treating the implant surface in the same way a natural tooth surface is treated. The result is a sterilized and sealed treatment area that has been stimulated to regenerate healthy tissue and reattach to the implant, facilitating many years of stability. No sutures are needed, and recovery time involves far less discomfort than a traditional flap surgery.

I have had two very pleasant experiences with Dr. Yamen Akhras both were for crowns with a root canal. The first being in 2016, I was less than a week away from a deployment to the middle east. I had a bad tooth that the army would most certainly just pull. Dr. Akhras stayed late till almost 9 pm to perform a root canal to relieve my pain. He then fast tracked my permanent crown in 3 days and put it on so I could deploy with a solid pain free tooth. He really is amazing. Thank you again Dr. Akras.
