Gum disease can quietly compromise your oral and overall health, often progressing without obvious symptoms until it’s advanced. For many patients, the fear of traditional surgery, with its cutting, sutures, and lengthy recovery, deters them from seeking timely care. Fortunately, modern periodontal treatment has evolved.
At Advanced Periodontics, Dr. Amato brings leading-edge solutions like LANAP laser gum surgery to patients seeking an effective, comfortable, and minimally invasive alternative to conventional procedures.
Precision and Minimally Invasive Care with LANAP
LANAP, short for Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure, represents a significant leap forward in the treatment of gum disease. Unlike traditional gum flap surgery, LANAP uses sophisticated laser technology to selectively target diseased tissue while preserving healthy gums.
This results in more predictable healing and a much gentler experience for patients. Here are just a few reasons why LANAP is a preferred option over traditional periodontal treatments:
- Less discomfort: No scalpels or sutures are needed, reducing pain and swelling.
- Faster recovery times: Many patients return to normal activity within 24 hours.
- Minimal bleeding: The laser seals blood vessels as it works.
- Targeted bacteria removal: Kills harmful bacteria deep below the gumline with precision.
Clinically Proven Outcomes and Regeneration
What truly sets LANAP apart is its ability to promote the body’s natural healing response. Clinical studies have shown that LANAP can help regenerate bone and ligament tissue lost to periodontal disease, an outcome that traditional methods typically can’t achieve. This makes it especially valuable for patients looking to preserve their natural teeth and restore full oral function.
In the hands of an experienced specialist like Dr. Amato, who has placed over 5,000 dental implants and has decades of periodontal expertise, LANAP becomes more than a treatment. It becomes a path to long-term oral health and stability.
Comfort and Confidence in a Modern, Patient-Focused Setting
For many patients, visiting the periodontist can bring anxiety. That’s why Advanced Periodontics designed our office in Monroe with patient comfort in mind, from the calming atmosphere to the high-tech equipment that shortens treatment time and improves outcomes.
LANAP perfectly aligns with this philosophy by eliminating the fear factor often associated with gum surgery. It’s quiet, efficient, and typically completed in just one or two visits. The benefits of a patient-focused approach include:
- Personalized attention: Each treatment begins with an in-depth consultation and digital diagnostics like i-CAT 3D imaging.
- Streamlined care journey: No outside referrals. Dr. Amato provides comprehensive care under one roof.
- Greater trust and transparency: You’re an active partner in your care plan, with clear explanations every step of the way.
Long-Term Health Benefits with Less Disruption
Gum disease doesn’t just threaten your teeth. It’s been linked to systemic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. Treating it early and effectively is key to protecting your overall wellness. LANAP not only eliminates the infection but does so without compromising your daily life.
With minimal downtime and superior safety, patients can maintain their routines and return to work swiftly, often the very next day. This proactive, minimally invasive solution reflects Dr. Amato’s commitment to delivering high-quality, lasting results centered around your lifestyle, comfort, and long-term health.
