Currently, not many other periodontal clinics in the area with properly trained doctors to offer LANAP® procedure for their patients . Florida Institute for Periodontics & Dental Implants is proud to be able to make this treatment available to gum disease sufferers in South Florida.

There is no cutting and no suturing in LANAP® Proceudre, and much less pain and discomfort during and after the procedure, compared to standard periodontal surgery. The duration of the procedure is also shorter then traditional periodontal surgery. Generanlly LANAP® is more selective and less invasive then traditional surgery.

LANAP® procedure does not include the major loss of gum tissue which is almost always involved in traditional surgery. The gum loss can lead to increased teeth sensitivity caused by exposed roots and other periodontal problems.The laser used with LANAP® targets only damaged tissue, which has different light absorption than healthy tissue, without impacting healthy gum and bone.
