What is LANAP®?

LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared treatment for gum disease. This minimally invasive procedure uses laser technology to target and remove diseased tissue while preserving healthy gums—no scalpels or sutures required. At Oasis Perio, LANAP is performed with precision and care to restore your oral health in a calming, spa-like environment.

Signs You May Need LANAP® Treatment

Identifying the need for LANAP® is an important step in treating gum disease effectively and preserving your natural teeth. Key signs you may require this procedure include:

Chronic inflammation or bleeding gums, especially when brushing or flossing.

Deep periodontal pockets that don’t improve with regular cleanings or home care.

Receding gums that make your teeth appear longer or more sensitive.

Loose or shifting teeth, which may indicate bone loss around the roots.

Persistent bad breath (halitosis) even after brushing and mouthwash use.

A previous diagnosis of moderate to severe periodontitis requiring deeper intervention.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Your LANAP procedure at Oasis Perio is performed under local anesthesia for your comfort. A specialized PerioLase® MVP-7 laser gently removes bacteria and diseased tissue without the need for cutting. After the laser phase, ultrasonic scalers clean the root surfaces, and the laser is used again to create a stable blood clot that helps regenerate the attachment of gum tissue to the tooth. Most patients return to normal activities the next day—with little to no discomfort and no visible stitches.

Reviews

A pair of purple quote marks.

Dr. Vanessa Mancuso performed oral surgery and implant bone grafts for dental implant retention. She is superior in her field of periodontics. The surgery was painless, and she demonstrated a gentle, kind, and lighthearted demeanor throughout the process. I highly recommend her services.

I recently had oral surgery performed by Dr. V. Mancuso. I received excellent care, with three follow-up visits by Dr. Mancuso. She always guided me on what to do to ensure the healing of the wound would be effective. At this time, everything is perfect, and I got my teeth back. I salute Dr. Mancuso.

I want to compliment Dr. Vanessa Mancuso on the excellent work she performed on my recent gum operation. I am very grateful to her that the operation was successful. The after-operation care I received from Dr. Vanessa Mancuso was very professional, and the healing process has been smooth.

More About LANAP®

Is LANAP Better Than Traditional Gum Surgery?

For many patients, yes. LANAP allows for a quicker recovery, less discomfort, and minimal disruption to your daily life. It’s ideal for those seeking a high-tech, minimally invasive approach to treating moderate to severe gum disease.


A Minimally Invasive Approach to Advanced Gum Disease

LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is revolutionizing the way we treat gum disease. Traditionally, moderate to severe periodontitis required invasive surgery involving cutting, sutures, and extended recovery time. With LANAP, Oasis Perio offers a non-surgical alternative that uses the power of laser technology to regenerate healthy gum and bone tissue—all with minimal discomfort and faster healing.

Oasis Perio proudly offers LANAP to patients in Fort Lauderdale and surrounding areas including Las Olas, Victoria Park, Coral Springs, Wilton Manors, and Davie.
