Gum Disease Treatment
LANAP Periodontal Disease Treatment
San Diego Periodontics
In the past, gum disease treatment often meant painful periodontal surgery. Today, thanks to LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure), we can offer a non-invasive and effective alternative to traditional surgery. LANAP uses laser technology to selectively remove diseased tissue while preserving healthy gum tissue, allowing it to regenerate naturally.
Dr. Davoudi is certified in LANAP and is proud to offer this advanced treatment at Mesa Family Dental in San Diego. LANAP requires only a local anesthetic and is a comfortable option for patients seeking gum disease treatment.
ARESTIN®: Periodontal Disease Treatment
Periodontal disease, caused by bacterial infection in the gums, can lead to tooth loss and other serious health issues if left untreated. ARESTIN® is an antibiotic treatment used to eliminate harmful bacteria and prevent the progression of gum disease.
ARESTIN® is applied directly to the affected gums, often after procedures like scaling and root planing. This treatment helps reduce the gap between gums and teeth and is particularly effective for patients with moderate gum disease or those who smoke.
ARESTIN® is easy to tolerate, with minimal side effects, and does not require follow-up removal as it is naturally absorbed by the body. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental visits are essential to ensure lasting gum health.
LANAP Success Rate
LANAP is a groundbreaking technique for restoring gum and periodontal tissue with impressive success rates. The laser targets and removes infected cells while sparing healthy tissue, allowing for natural reattachment and bone regeneration.
LANAP offers numerous benefits, including:
LANAP’s high success rate and patient satisfaction make it a preferred choice for gum disease treatment.
