LANAP® Laser Treatment in Poway, CA

Advanced periodontal disease can harm the gums and structures supporting the teeth, leading to increased risk of progressive attachment loss and bone deterioration if not treated. At Tooth Rock Periodontics, we provide LANAP laser treatment in Poway for eligible patients with moderate to advanced periodontal disease. Every treatment recommendation begins with a comprehensive periodontal evaluation to assess your oral health, the severity of periodontal disease, and your individual treatment needs before determining whether LANAP® treatment is appropriate.

What Is LANAP® Laser Treatment?

LANAP® treatment is a laser-assisted periodontal procedure used to treat moderate to advanced periodontal disease. The laser is used to target infected periodontal tissue while preserving healthy tissue whenever clinically appropriate. The procedure helps reduce periodontal infection and supports healing of the gums and surrounding periodontal tissues. Treatment recommendations are always based on your diagnosis, periodontal condition, and overall oral health.

When Might LANAP® Be Recommended?

A comprehensive periodontal evaluation may be recommended if you:

• Have moderate to advanced periodontitis
• Have deep periodontal pockets
• Have ongoing periodontal infection
• Experience bleeding, swollen, or inflamed gums
• Have progressive bone loss related to periodontal disease

Every recommendation is based on a thorough clinical examination rather than a routine approach.

How LANAP® Treatment Supports Periodontal Health

Depending on your diagnosis and treatment goals, LANAP® treatment may help:

• Reduce periodontal infection
• Treat areas affected by advanced gum disease
• Help reduce the depth of periodontal pockets
• Support healing of periodontal tissues
• Help preserve natural teeth when clinically appropriate
• Support the long-term management of periodontal disease

Treatment outcomes vary depending on the seriousness of periodontal disease, your oral health, and your individual response to treatment.
