Gum disease surgery often requires cutting and stitching, which can lead to a longer and more uncomfortable recovery. While it’s an effective periodontitis treatment, many patients are hesitant due to how invasive it is and how much time recovery takes.
LANAP laser gum disease treatment offers a modern alternative, using laser technology to precisely target diseased tissue while preserving healthy gums. This means less pain, quicker healing, and a more predictable approach.
