Gum disease can affect more than just your smile – it can lead to gum recession, tooth loss and even impact overall health. Traditional surgical treatments can be invasive, but modern advancements offer a more comfortable and effective alternative. Dr. Joyce Ma provides LANAP therapy in Montgomery, New Jersey, to help patients treat gum disease with less pain, faster healing and long-lasting results.

A High-Tech Approach to Treating Gum Disease

LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an advanced, FDA-approved laser treatment designed to target and remove infected gum tissue without the need for scalpels or sutures. This minimally invasive approach reduces discomfort and encourages natural healing, allowing the gums to reattach to the teeth more effectively.

We use LANAP therapy to precisely eliminate bacteria and promote the regeneration of healthy gum tissue, helping patients regain their oral health while preserving as much natural tissue as possible.

Are You a Candidate for LANAP Therapy?

Gum disease often develops gradually, and many patients do not realize they have it until significant damage has occurred. You may benefit from LANAP therapy if you experience:

  • Bleeding, swollen or tender gums
  • Persistent bad breath caused by bacteria buildup
  • Gum recession that exposes tooth roots
  • Deep pockets forming between the gums and teeth
  • Loose teeth due to bone loss

Addressing gum disease early with LANAP therapy can prevent further damage and reduce the risk of tooth loss.

Why Choose LANAP Therapy?

LANAP therapy provides several benefits compared to traditional gum surgery, including:

  • Minimally Invasive: No cutting or stitching is required.
  • Faster Recovery: Patients experience less discomfort and shorter healing times.
  • Tissue Regeneration: Encourages natural gum reattachment and bone regrowth.
  • Reduced Risk of Infection: The laser sterilizes the area, promoting better healing.
  • Long-Term Gum Stability: Helps protect teeth from further damage.
