What Is the LANAP Protocol?
Periodontal disease, often called gum disease, is one of the most significant threats to dental health and a leading cause of tooth loss among adults. Left untreated, this condition can progress, severely impacting oral and overall health. Traditional treatments for gum disease can often be invasive and uncomfortable, but technological advancements have introduced revolutionary solutions like LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure).
This minimally invasive laser treatment targets infected areas with precision, removing harmful bacteria, regenerating healthy tissue, and promoting natural healing without the need for sutures or stitches. Early intervention is critical if you notice symptoms such as swollen or bleeding gums. Dr. Bin Hoang with Nevada Facial & Oral Surgery provides advanced gum disease treatments in Las Vegas and Henderson, NV.

LANAP Laser Gum Disease Treatment Vs. Traditional Gum Surgery
LANAP provides a cutting-edge alternative to traditional gum disease treatments, offering unparalleled precision and comfort. Utilizing the PerioLase® MVP-7™ laser—designed with fiber as thin as three human hairs—this advanced technology targets and removes infected gum tissue with pinpoint accuracy. LANAP eliminates diseased areas and promotes the regeneration and reattachment of healthy gum tissue for long-lasting results.
Unlike surgical procedures that require cutting and suturing, LANAP is minimally invasive and often requires only a light anesthetic spray to ensure patient comfort, avoiding the need for sedation. The laser’s powerful energy sterilizes the treatment area, significantly reducing the risk of bacterial infections and minimizing the chances of gum disease recurrence.
What to Expect with the LANAP Procedure
LANAP is a cutting-edge treatment for periodontitis that uses a small laser fiber to precisely target and remove infected tissue without harming healthy areas. The laser cleans your tooth roots of tartar and plaque, followed by a different laser setting that helps form a fibrin clot between the gums and teeth.
This process seals the periodontal pockets and encourages the gums to reattach to the teeth, promoting healing. Because LANAP is minimally invasive, recovery begins immediately after the procedure. Many patients can resume normal activities, including returning to work, on the same day they receive treatment at Nevada Oral & Facial Surgery.
