LANAP® Laser Treatment - New Bedford, MA
A Cutting Edge Approach to Gum Disease Treatment
"Dr. Palayam Talks About A High-Tech Approach to Today's Dentistry"
Schedule NowLANAP Laser Treatment for Severe Periodontal Disease
LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an advanced, laser-based technology engineered to eliminate gum disease caused by inflammation of soft tissue in the mouth. By using a guided laser approach, the team of periodontal experts at Aarohi Dental in New Bedford, MA can effectively eliminate damaged soft tissue without affecting surrounding healthy tissue. This results in fast, effective, nearly pain-free periodontal disease treatment for the patient.
Aarohi Dental is also one of the few dental practices in the northeast that specializes in LAPIP® – a modified version of LANAP. LAPIP therapy is a modern, technological approach to treating failing dental implants. Dental implants are an effective, long term solution to missing teeth, but without the use of robot guided surgery, errors in implant placement can be common. Improperly placed implants can cause an array of soft tissue complications down the road, but with LANAP and LAPIP, patients can experience revolutionary soft tissue repair that is faster, more effective, and less painful than ever.

Do You Need Periodontitis Treatment?
- Do you have tender or sensitive gums?
- Do your experience bleeding while brushing or flossing?
- Do you suffer from halitosis (bad breath)?
- Are your teeth loose or noticeably moveable?
- Do you have receding gums?
- Do you get frequent toothaches?
Fast, Non-Invasive, Virtually Pain-Free Gum Disease Treatment
LANAP and LAPIP laser therapies have vastly improved the traditional cut-and-sew method of periodontal disease treatment. By targeting only the affected areas of soft tissue in the mouth, these advanced laser guided approaches are able to reduce healing times by avoiding damage to healthy soft tissue. They also eliminate the need for biologics and growth factors, which are common gum disease treatments that often come with an array of adverse side effects.
LANAP laser gum disease treatment also rarely requires bone grafting, as it removes damaged soft tissue at the source, and eliminates inflammation and pockets of bacteria without removing healthy bone.

Whole Body Health Starts With the Gums
Millions of people around the world suffer from gum disease, but few realize the implications it has on whole body health. Oral health is directly tied to our systemic (whole body) health, and as such, inflamed soft tissue can quickly lead to serious, life threatening conditions if left untreated. Research shows that patients suffering from severe periodontal disease are at an increased risk for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke, just to name a few.
At Aarohi Dental in New Bedford, MA, our acclaimed team of periodontists boast unparalleled expertise in gum disease treatment, gingivitis treatment, and other forms of soft tissue disease. We utilize the most advanced technology available to not only stop soft tissue inflammation in its tracks, but to reverse it and make sure it doesn’t come back. If you’re suffering from gum disease and are in search of a qualified, experienced periodontist in the New Bedford, MA area, don’t hesitate to call us today.
