The recent development of lasers has helped many professionals make strides in their industries, and the oral care and hygiene industry is no exception. Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP) was developed and approved in 2004 as a laser treatment to combat periodontal disease. The surgical procedure has since been adopted by many surgeons and is praised for its accuracy and precision in removing gum tissue from around teeth. At Progressive Periodontics, our Tigard, OR laser periodontal surgeon is specifically trained to use LANAP and has performed the procedure countless times successfully, leaving patients with healthy gums.
